I just remembered the pictures of wet leaves I made this morning, a portend of fall. It has rained parts of the last three or four days. Everything was shiny and cool this morning; by afternoon everything was steamy again. Paul said rain is forecast for the next 10 days!
Mama's gigantic philo which will need to be brought in and put... where?... before too long. But I know she'd be pleased that it's been nurtured so well and grown to be a big, healthy plant. The small plant below it is a cutting of her Christmas cactus that has done well outside this summer. There's a larger one from which this came; I'll have to repot it soon.
Came across this on my disk of the two Dawg fans before the Jax State game a couple of weeks ago.
Tomorrow Amy and I plan to go to Iuka for the day. She said she hoped I bring Oscar. I hadn't really planned to, but he enjoys riding and she enjoys playing with him. He'll be on the leash the entire time he's at anyone's house. But at least there is one more person - Amy - whom he "likes" now! It hasn't always been so and she has scars to show for it. But she didn't give up on him. This has seemed like Saturday all day. I gave Oscar a bath, started dusting the house (serious dusting - throwing away things, putting jewelry away, putting lost buttons in my sewing drawer) and did some shopping. By the time I got home from the grocery store and Walmart, being gone for about an hour and a half, my foot/leg was screaming for relief. I did take something; I've hoarded my prescribed med because I knew it would have to last at least till I see the doctor again - no refills. Paul asked, "Are you limping because you're hurting?" I try to walk as normally as possible, but when it hurts I limp, so yes - I was hurting. But it is better.
