Write Every Day: Day 12

Fridays are the days I take the Old Man to appointments so I'll be out until later today. So today's post goes up a bit early.

Let me know if I missed your name at any point. And feel free to jump in any time.

apparently i can't be let out unsupervised

Welp, who has two thumbs and managed to twist their ankle on a piece of uneven sidewalk and go completely ass over teakettle. No major injuries, just some scraped up palms and a few bruises. And I lost my phone in the process, but a neighbour picked it up and dropped it off at the house.

Weirdly the side of my upper ribcage hurts? Maybe I jammed something under it when I landed? No idea. Guess I'll figure it out if I have a bruise there tomorrow.

I have a lot of plants in my office, both because it's the brightest spot in the house and also because it's one of the few spaces they are safe from the predations of the criminal mastermind Dr River Song. (Many of them are poisonous to cats) The plants make lots of babies as plants are prone to do, so I put the extras in my Little Free Library for neighbours to take.

Occasionally I get presents back. A couple of days ago somebody put a package of sunflower seeds in there along with some small clay starter pots. I tried planting sunflower seeds in the yard last time and the squirrels ate them all, so next time around I'll start them in the pots inside first.

I miss being able to dig around my yard this summer, but we're completely cut off from the back of the house until the kitchen reno is done. Next summer I will plant a kajillion tomato plants and I'll be in my happy place.
