So it’s Friday morning, after the first chemical cocktail on Wednesday, and my friends are over for early coffee. They are all wondering how I am feeling. I feel fine. The nausea medicine is supposed to hold for three days. So ask me tomorrow.
There is a new resident woodpecker who is screeching and trying out all the limbs on the big ash tree in the back. Cardinals come and go at the feeder. Of course, the sparrows are everywhere despite to looming of the mourning and white-winged doves.
The honeysuckle is in full bloom, as is the sweet olive; bees are actually flitting amongst the flowers.
On the table are 100 petunias awaiting “Bobcat Build” to come tomorrow. “Bobcat Build” is a student volunteer program at Texas State University to beautify the town. We will have about 30 students come by for exterior work for a4 hours. We always try to have, in addition to some trimming, permanent beautification. There are signs up all over town for “Bobcat Build,” on public and private areas. I thought this year, we would get front beds planted with petunias, as well as get rid of leaves.
