Week in review, originally uploaded by

Lots of flowers blooming this week. Columbines, yellow lilies, allium, bleeding hearts, violets, English daisies.
The neighbor cat Nola has been visiting a lot. I like her visits.
I sold the old refrigerator to a guy who is going to use it for home brewing beer. Perfect for him because he doesn't need the freezer.
We started trying to play tennis. We bought some cheap rackets from the thrift store. The first time I tried to serve I missed the ball but it got better from there. We have only played twice. I am terrible but I have fun and that is what matters to me.
Saturday was the Clintonville Farmer's Market so I got up early and went. I bought some pork sausage and got some free gladiola bulbs. On the way back to the truck I saw a sign that said "plant sale". So I had to go see what that was about. A lady was selling some extra plants from her porch. She didn't know what they were called but told me they come up every year and have pink flowers so I bought a pot of them for $1. The bulbs and mystery plants are all in the ground now.
It has been raining a lot so it seems like whenever there is a nice day the yard needs mowed. It is an endless battle. I would rather that than cold any day.
This evening I wanted to go for a walk so I took the neighbor's dog Rico on a really long walk. He is a pit bull and he is less than a year old so there is no shortage on energy there. It is fun to walk with such a big dog, I feel very safe. Nobody is going to mess with a person walking a pit bull. He is very nice though and loves people and other dogs, he just looks intimidating.
What have you been up to?
