*** I’m exhausted ... not sleeping well the last couple of days, nervous about the roof ... what would they find under the old shingles, how bad would they mess up things (they were careful), etc. Silly to worry, but I couldn’t help it. I got a lot of knitting done - very calming :-)***
I know what you mean. That’s how I was with those ginormous trees dropping branches with every rainfall. I was very worried, and of course, that does NOTHING for anybody. Too bad I haven’t ever learned how to knit or crochet. I should try that again sometime. I used to do cross-stitch and embroidery, but haven’t done either in years.
Tha landscaper team came out yesterday to measure the meditation garden for setting down flagstone for me. I expect we will have an estimate by early next week. I hope this one is more affordable. I’d like to have the project finished by mid-September so we can reseed at the end of the month.
Any ‘skilled’ labor is expensive, but I hope you get a good price on the flagstones. I figure that putting in our fairly simple paver sidewalk myself, I probably saved a couple hundred bucks minimum.
It’s gotten quite breezy as a dry front is pushing through. Every now & then the breeze has a colder edge to it. Temps for next week look like 70’s over mid-50’s & the following weekend, lows in the 40’s. Our dogwood is totally bronze & the grass in places is noticeably turning. A Fall vibe is definitely in the air. The nursery where we bought our Cinnamon Heart rose bush already had a huge pumpkin display - really pretty.
Took a caffeine pill to see if I can wake up enough to get something constructive done today - no energy at all. I feel like such a slug!
