natter, etc
Oct. 29th, 2015 10:46 amI've been slowly working through the garden -- the sage in the NW bed is cut back and the chinese lanterns are thinned; the grass and iris leaves are out of the E garden; the bleeding hearts in the front bed are cut back, etc. I had to clear algae out of the pond pump again. blech -- it's cold and slimy anyway, and this time there was a dead frog caught in it. eeeeeew.
FCB Halloween concert was Sunday -- I wore the Victorian from September, because I still don't have access to the sewing room. I've been emailing the designer who sold me the cabinet, and we still have no solution. Yes, they sent me exactly what I ordered, but it's not what I wanted, nor is it what I told the designer I wanted. I'm not sure what my avenues are, but I will probably be escalating soon. I suspect we will not be using the local lumberyard for anything that we can't pick up instore. We've ordered two things from them this year, and both times we had to call to find out where our stuff was.
DB was a Headless Horseman at the concert -- we played Broege's Headless Horseman, and he has a stick pony left over from band. I'm sure you can see what happened next.:) I built a pumpkin head mask out of a craft pumpkin from Michael's (they make half pumpkins for hanging on walls/doors) and a welding mask frame -- J printed brackets to connect them. Gorilla Glue is the only thing we found that actually sticks to craft pumpkins.
