May. 5th, 2005 07:15 amHas a semi-productive day yesterday. Meeting with the first contractor about replacing trees per warranty went well; he didn't argue with us. New Boss thinks his company wants JCCC business, and is probably right. Let's hope the meeting this afternoon with the contractor from the other project goes as smoothly. (Today's guy was a pain in the ass last fall, when we were trying to get replacements then.)
Got some stuff planted in the yard last night--verbenas and red dragon around the limestone birdbath, alyssum around the geranium planter, variegated elderberries in the pine row, to mark the new path up to the iris beds. I need to work on a couple of retaining walls, so I can plant those beds. May or may not get done this week, depends on my energy levels.
The Sock Report: finished the heel on the first Turkish sock last night. Didn't start on the second, because my hands hurt all day yesterday. Will try to do it tonight.
The UnSock Report: rested my fingers on a scarf proto-type I've been playing with for a little while. Nothing super fancy, just a narrow ribbed scarf in a chenille and rayon twist yarn, with a loop at one end, rather like the lariat necklaces that used to be popular. Thinking about presenting it as part of the merchandise/display/props for the Garden show--By thought the scarf had a certain amount of kinky potential. And if nothing else, it does look and feel nice.
