I don't get the holiday off, but I'm working at home today so it is much as usual. Salvation Army got the stuff, the electricians put up my new light and plug (looks great!) and now I can start rearranging stuff in the hall and sun room again. There's a lot to go to recycling to begin with.

This weekend I need to start cutting the vegetables damaged by last week's frost. Some are still producing, most aren't. I can start shaping and clearing and getting ready for winter plantings, and I'll put more broccoli and some cauliflower in near the house. Also garlic cloves and I'll plant onions by seed.

More reports later. Penny, let me know how your trap works. You actually set it up without the gate to habituate the rat to getting food there first? Good idea.
