a while ago, when I opened one of the drawers in the dining room, I realized that the bottom was coming away from the sides…

this had nothing to do with the weight of the dishes in the drawer🤪…

I mentioned it to my middle grandson, who advised he could fix it… he’s been a few times since then, but it finally worked out when he was here yesterday, for Easter dinner…

I had emptied the drawer before he came to help speed along the process…

it took a few trips to the basement for tools and a struggle with warped wood, but he got it fixed…

still waiting to put things back into it, after I remove some of the items that had been in it…

obviously there will be something for the pass-along box;-)…

nothing…

had decided to do nothing today… just rest up…

but, I headed into the garden and filled three more pots with the last of the plants I bought weeks ago…

the darn squirrels have already dug out one of the lobelias… shoved it back in, so hope it grows… 

pleased with the morning glories that I planted around the deck… looks like the majority are growing… sadly most of the alyssum did not make it, so will need to replace it…

the garden is a bit overgrown but looks beautiful in pictures, lol…

still plan on trimming the daisies soon…

been having trouble getting into gardening this year… missing my beloved and not enjoying my time in the garden so much… 

think I need to find a gardener to come and get some of the major weeding done as my grandson is not going to be available nearly as much as last year… I like to do a bit of weeding but am feeling overwhelmed with the amount of work required now…

walked to the grocery store and got some shots of a tree down the street which had blown over… bunny stopped by as I was taking my pictures, lol…

so apparently I did stuff most of the day… even made potato salad for tomorrow’s dinner…

now to get to that do nothing place;-)… tv, a snack and bed…
