This may be the day for me to follow Charmion's lead and get out the burning barrel, that I left in easy reach when I cleaned the greenhouse last weekend.

I had to scramble to find a few flat rate Priority mailing envelopes (I had to swap Express envelopes for some I had my mask patterns stored in) and will order more. The post office doesn't charge for Priority boxes and envelopes, but they will take a few days to arrive. I have a couple of small flat rate boxes that will also do the trick.

Today I'll try the curbside pickup for my dog food at Tractor Supply. They have too many customers who simply don't wear masks or who do it improperly, and I'm tired of arguing with their willful stupidity. I called to inquire about the process, they say it takes about an hour. I do go into Joann's to get fabric because it's too difficult to order online.

There was a hard frost this morning that got all the way up to the house. Now is the time to consider any work that trees need, and bulky waste pickup is in about 10 days, so I'll take the battery-operated reciprocating saw out and trim a few limbs.
