A new string of LED lights has arrived and I'll swap them out with the older string along the roofline of the front porch. The old string can still be used, now on the patio in back.
My insurance company used to offer a little phone app exercise program that I did at least several times a week, but they dropped it with the new benefit year. Some years ago my sister convinced me to try Essentrics and I pay a few dollars a month (in an annual bill) and decided I'd better get back to that one (it's a matter of finding a routine time to do the longer exercises). I always feel better after. The added weight from Prednisone makes the exercise more essential because it puts more pressure on the knee replacement hardware. Next week I'm tapering down one more mg and hopefully will reach a point where the steroids have less impact on eating.
The okra is nearing the end in the garden but the eggplants are perking along happily. I have to take the trimmer out and edge everything and then mow strategically; I have some groundcover I'm trying to let get established enough that it comes back thicker every year, but that means mowing it occasionally to spread the seeds around. This is that time. And the second of two limbs on the stone pine needs to be cut off today and disassembled to fit in the trash can.
The slim trowel I left on the pony wall next to the front door was used this morning to clear off the web in the corner then to tuck the deceased Ms. Argiope into the pot beside the bright yellow mums I put out last week. She had a robust life for a spider, dying of old age instead of a snack for a bird or bat or lizard. (There was a larger one beside the front walk who just vanished, still in her prime - I think she was a meal.)
