Tuesday's Dead...

I overslept on Tuesday! For some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to turn off the alarm and close my eyes for just a little bit. It wasn't!!

At lunch, I took back my library books (I was going to pick up one Jake suggested, but it was out). I also stopped and got some of those big leaf/garden debris bags. The township will start picking them up the first full week of April.

I was going to start picking up the junk in the front yard when I got home after work, but the wind was blowing too hard. However, with any luck, my leaves and such will blow over into my neighbor's yard, LOL!

I had to go out and refill the bird feeder and the suet cage. Now normally, that's a Wednesday night chore. But, it's supposed to rain tomorrow, so today seems to be a better choice. Since I was out there anyway, I raked the leaves off my patio gardens and found the oregano had been growing under the carpet of leaves, the sage was alive and kicking and the chives were just starting to green up. See photos.

Back inside, I emptied the dishwasher and then cleaned up the stove (last night's soup making made a mess!)

Lu called around 7:00. Seems they were quite busy over the weekend as they had nine goat kids born (mothers and babies are all doing fine). This is the last week she can make soaps to sell at an Herb Festival coming up on May 2 (they have to dry, if you remember). Then she will switch to making herb/goat milk lotions and salves. She's also trying to get the required paperwork from the state and the IRS, so she's busy and a bit frustrated.

After we hung up, I made dinner: leftover catfish and wild rice. I added in some steamed sweet corn to jazz it up, but it was still leftovers...

I watched some TV and then went to bed.
