Garden Gnome
Today was a cool wet day.
So,for the most part we stayed at home. But, we did have a short adventure to Home Depot.
My wife wants to plant some flowers for her mother, and I decided to try our window box again. I get it into my head to do this about every 5 years. The squirrels love it as they regard it as an all you can eat buffet.
But, I’ll give it another shot.
I was surprised to see that the garden shop there had small tents for garden gnomes.
I think it’s cool they have gnome housing. But, a bit strange in a hardware store.
Knowing how weapons tend to develop, I suspect I have a different view of their garden implements then most folks.
But, I only needed a small spade for the window box.
I think it came out well enough.
We’ll see if the squirrel will let it be.
When we stopped at the market for dinner supplies I saw a strange sight.
People who don’t bring their cart back up, or at least put it in one of the return places really annoy me. And, there is a LOT of that in Shrewsbury. It seems to me that there are often more carts just drifting around the lot then actually in the store.
It is so bad that apparently the birds have started to try and move the carts around.
At least I think that is what the two birds on this cart were trying.
I hope it works. But, then we’ll probably have to pay them.
Sadly I found that my possessed door locks did indeed drain my car battery. So, it’s recharging tonight.
I did get in touch with the laser place today to see if anything has changed in the month since my interview.
“You’re not what we want, and we’re still looking,” I was told. “But, your very much in the running of people we don’t want.”
Great.
Top of the class in someone to settle for.
