whole lotsa nuthin' going on here.

Rehearsals continue apace (first concert is Sept 29, weather permitting); garage redo continues, not so apace. My car is in the garage, but the bay is still pretty full around it and the lawnmower, yard tools, and bicycles still need to go in. The space is painted and the heat pump is mostly installed. Still lots of things to be put back into the garage, but there will be some purging done as well. (I hope!)

I have not been weeding because it's been quite dry -- we got about .75 inches of rain on Thursday, and that's the first appreciable rain in a couple of weeks. At least one of the patches of blackberry lilies has gone to seed, and I need to cut those back before the seeds start dropping - I don't want the patches to get any more dense or any larger. I should go out today and pull some weeds, but the weather has turned (it's 25 degrees colder now than it was 24 hours ago). And the rill sprang a leak last night, so that needs to be fixed first -- I hope it's just that some rocks settled and the water needs to be re-routed, but I won't know until I get out there. At least the water is warm. :) The frog count high for this year (so far) is 21, and the biggest ones are getting to be pretty big. Watching the little frogs scramble up onto rocks is amusing.

Next week I go back to the K-2 library. I emailed the librarian last week, and she said that they'd just started taking books out, and so she wouldn't have any coming back until next week anyway.

I have been poking about in the workroom, clearing and sorting a bit, and have plans for a few new things. I think I will not make a new costume for the FCB Halloween concert, unless I decide to make an early 1960's dress (according to the flyer, the Spooktacular theme is "Mission Impossible", and there's a piece from Hairspray in the program (probably - I expect that it will be on both the cider mill and spooktacular programs)).
