Today, for instance.
I have several hoses and a hose reel. But for some reason, the hose that connects the reel to the outside faucet twists up when I reel the hose up. It has never done that before. I am guessing I have a loose nut someplace, so tomorrow I will try to find it.
That's a frustration.
I have a couple of hoses I can not get apart. They seem fused together. I have tried pliers, WD 40, and straining my weak muscles, but they just don't unscrew from each other.
That's a frestration.
Today I potted some of the plants I bought the other day. I did not finish because I just got tired.
But I went to water some of the ones I potted.
I bent over to get the green, plastic watering can that was on its side in the driveway. (I know, I should put stuff away. But I am 75 and have been like that forever.)
Digression: Beth caught a baby rabbit the other night. She had it in her mouth, but I grabbed her collar and she let go and the rabbit hopped off.
Reason for the digression: I picked up the watering can and it seemed heavy. I looked in it and.....there was a baby rabbit! Same one? I don't know. How long was it in the can? I don't know. Where's the mama? I don't know. What is the square root of 5? I don't know and I don't care.
Anyway, I showed Julia and Jackie the baby and then let it go in my wildflower garden.
It took off in a flash, so I assume it was fine.
That was a surprise.
Another surprise: Friends came over for a visit and brought us a plant and some caramel popcorn. I may have eaten too much of the popcorn.
Final surprise: Cubs tied the Astros on a home run by Morell. I hope they can put this one in the win column.
Peace and Love
