Dupont:

Just got R off to a birthday dinner with his cousin's SO. After a phone call finding that a friend passed away last week! (That's why his motorcycle is listed on FB!)

R went off with brown eyed Susan's and Q Anne's lace for the hostess. We spent most of the day working on the house - weed wacking and tidying up places long in need; R put a shelf/hanging rack in guest room closet and removed the treasures from the desk I want out of there! (I threatened to cut it up with a chain saw to get it out) I sorted out some pictures for the walls. Determined it will be more hospitable than it was the last time Taun was here. My sons keep meticulous homes! And we read during rest periods!

The Jennair range burned the ribs in a few minutes last night! But they were still edible and the fresh corn made up for it! NOW R is convinced it needs attention. I want to arrange for a Jennair tech -but FIRST Dan... I may have to warn son that there will be no baking in this house in Sept.

The woman who was buying a pottery wheel messaged that she needs the room for her abused niece, so she is bringing it to the Mill on Weds aft, when I planned to be in that area for a group walk in a wildlife preserve - on Lac St. Francois, then a visit with Geri. Maybe I can find the fancy microwave my SIL gave me Many years ago! And, maybe I can get it in the car! And maybe it still functions...

A beautiful day - just right temp and sunny. May get rain on Weds in 2-5 mm range. Watered today. Now another weed wack stint.
