A couple of folks who may have missed the note at the end of the "Jayne" entry below have asked where Polinaut is. Mowing the lawn, planing a bunch of new flowers, tilling the big garden and planting the corn, radishes and gladiola, trying to figure out how to keep the dog out of the yellow, beaded irisis, working on the "world's longest deck rebuilding project" (3 seasons and I'm just getting the railings done on the lower landing), trying to figure out how to get rid of the birch leaf miner problem (you can't), repainting deck furniture that's worth less than the paint I'm putting on it, washing and waxing the cars, shampooing all the carpets in the house, washing windows, picking up the in-laws at the airport (today), having a great birthday steak dinner (yesterday), and planning on pushing a kid through high school graduation (Sunday).
I've been paying almost no attention to the news (especially the stock market), although the morning paper (oh yeah, I delivered a bunch of those for a friend last weekend) reveals a smattering of political news -- not a shred of it surprising.
I'll be back on Tuesday.
And you? How are you?
This will be the first weekend in a month not spent moving some room in our house into some other place as part of the remodelling project. Additionally my application to the University's continuing education program is complete and out of my hands. So me? I'm fiiiiiiine. We will be trading homes in August with a family from Germany, so maybe this weekend we'll finally get around to considering an itinerary...
