Not a wet Wednesday

I came home for lunch on Thursday and noticed that the tree box was broken (see photos). I'm not sure if it just happened or I just now noticed it.

It was supposed to rain off and on today, but still hadn't when I drove home at 5:00 PM.

Here's something weird: for the second day in a row, I had NO mail!

I started the normal Wednesday night laundry and then got to work on the second load. I had worn my light spring jacket yesterday (when it was 70 degrees F.) but noticed at work the collar and cuffs looked dirty. So, tonight I scrubbed them with a brush and some cleanser. The coat and my main bathroom rug made up the second load of laundry.

Since I had the rug out, I swept and mopped the bathroom floor. I hung up the first load of clothes and popped the second into the dryer.

Next I made my dinner. I put a single layer of frozen shoe-string French fries on my toaster oven tray (lined with tin foil for easy cleanup) and cooked them at 450 degrees (eight minutes on the first side, then turned and five minutes on the other),

I warmed two hamburger patties in the microwave for a minute and then put on some American cheese and heated them another 15 seconds. I put ketchup, mustard and dill pickle relish on two buns. I plated everything, adding salt to the fries and a dab of ketchup for dunking.

I went into the bedroom to watch the "Chopping Block." It got over at 9:00 PM and I went to bed.
