Mundane participation for the tragically bored.

I laughed even harder when I read this. I erased the part where I was off to look up bordeaux because I recalled actually loving some over the years, but didn't ever remember thinking "oh that's good" when it came to merlot. Snork. Ah me. Yep.

I'm not against merlot. It's just a little simpy sometimes. I believe that the French blend their wines more than we do here, so the Bordeauxs you've had were probably not 100% merlot.

Well that's actually good to know, I feel better Thanks.

feeling: ambiguous as usual.

To the extent we neighbors know each other, there is a lot of trust. I'm the iffy one, re letting bad weeds grow. This is, of, course, not my way, just something that happens by my living now, as I used to be all over yard design. Interesting experience.

I hope you're not gardening this time of the evening on New Year's Eve dear Ossobuco. Though there seems to be a zen like quality to that mundane task at the last few remaining hours of 201o.

Strong picture, tsar.
I did rake a mass of leaves today. But tasks to do are near insuperable.

Back with an appropriate summary..


oh, no, let's postpone that.

I did that chore too! The grass needed to have the leaves cleaned off as well as our gutter area that accumulates the leaves. Even cut the grass.
