Thunderstorms overnight so I moved the bedding plants off of the top of a garden table and sheltered them from the wind. The front yard is uniform in height but needs mowing again, while the back yard is a jungle. Poppy was out poking around in the tallest grass yesterday, clearly enjoying the new environment, but it won't last. I'll get a hefty fitness workout this weekend.

I went shopping with coupons last night, for things that I don't need but that will help out a couple of co-workers who have too much month left at the end of the money. For $2 ea (I asked if they were interested and they said yes) this grocery store near my home had a bag of potatoes, boxed pasta meals, and cornbread (alas, all starch or carbs) - items to help stretch the budget until next Wednesday. Just as well it's cool today, if they leave the potatoes in the car all day they won't bake. :)
