The last few days have been a lot of "normal" stuff. Mowing the lawn, working on the backyard, cleaning in the house, making pickles and relish. And those things were part of the time I normally do morning outside work.
There was also a surprise day from my son. He decided that he wanted to "go". So we went to visit with a friend for a while. My son got his favorite sweet tea and to curl up in "his" space under a weighted blanket, somewhere that wasn't home. And with people around that are not me. Mom isn't the only person that occasionally needs a break. I hadn't planned on this, but the friend was up for it, and nothing I had planned was written in concrete. So I chilled for a while, he chilled for longer, and I got to do a quick run through a thrift store. Found some interesting comfy shirts.
I did get one section done. The compost pile wasn't very happy with new additions at the moment but I got them to fit. I did have a few cuss words for when the stabby vine got me a few times. And there is a longer stabby vine section in the next part.
There is more liriope to handle. But I want all the bush and stabby vine (smilax) out before I deal with that. There is also another section of plastic edging to pull out that goes right through that liriope.
Then I can finally mark and start planting the other camellia. I hoping for 2 more elderberry bushes in the ground but we'll see what the measurements say.
And now I need to find a home for an old fashioned stabby rose bush that actually makes rose hips. That is floating through the brain so that, hopefully, I can do that transplant in the spring.
