Friday Five

TGIF!! It’s time to share five random things about our week. Here’s mine:

Monday, I worked in my little garden. That was fun and hot! Maggie’s always happy when I’m in the backyard with her. What wasn’t so fun — I learned what root rot smells like. Whoa!!! I tried what I guessed would help to rescue the plant, and repotted it in a better pot that I can see in to make sure I’m not over watering so much. I later learned I may not have done enough, but we’ll see. The good news is, that I’m learning! So far, the plant looks pretty good. As for me, I’d rather not smell root rot again anytime soon!Wizard saw me working out there and came out to chat, when he noticed I was using a small side table to work on my plants. A few days later, he suddenly needed a new folding table, bought one, and gave me his old one to use as a gardening table. This is classic Wizard move — finding a way to make things easier for me without making it seem like he went to any trouble   The table can stay up on the side of the house where no one sees it and it’s out of the way.Wednesday I saw CeeGee!! She is a delight. She’s nine months old and getting super active. She isn’t crawling yet, but her brain is now in “Go” mode and she’s doing all the right moves to be crawling soon. She now weights a chunky 18 lbs. This baby started life a bit underweight, and made up for it swiftly (thanks to mom’s and dad’s care). The pediatrician said she’s exactly what they like to see as she’ll be burning it off  soon crawling, walking then running. All true! And I loved spending time with my daughter in law too. Plus she sent me home with two books, I started one last night and already like it!I began the two day process of making sourdough bread yesterday. It’s been a while. I also worked out, did stupid chores, ran to Trader Joes, and founds ways to get super tired, LOL. I also made an appointment for Maggie to have a bath at the groomers today. Maggie heard her name and bath, and was instantly concerned enough to get up out of her bed, sit and stare at me while I finished the call. I’ve been giving her in-between baths but the groomer does a better job.This weekend, we’re having Biker Witch and Biker Hubby out for and early dinner on Saturday. Sunday, Wizard should be racing, so I get some time alone, but I also need to run out to a mall to return some shoes I ordered. I’m looking forward to seeing Biker Witch and Hubby, but the mall is not high on my list of fun things to do Monday I’m not sure if we’re doing anything for Memorial Day — we’ll see.

Now it’s your turn to share five random things! I hope everyone has a great weekend, and a good Memorial Day!
