jennlkReticulated irises in the side garden, and one early giant crocus. I did get out into that garden and cut back the milkweed stems. Windy today, so I'll have to go out and rake branches under the willow and the cottonwoods.
Sunday we went to Menard's and bought a bathtub and surround and doors and all the shower bits. When J went back to pick them up, he bought floor tiles. Monday he went back for more stuff (exhaust fan, lights). Today I picked up a couple of other things. There's at least one more trip for switches and timers. Yesterday, we extracted the old tub. We wound up cutting it (it's fiberglass) into two pieces so we could get it out - it was installed before the wall between the bathroom and the room next to it was, so there really wasn't a way to get it out in one piece.
J has seemingly forgotten that the reason we got the 'garden tub' (48x60) is because *he* wanted a soaking tub. I just wanted a tub for a kid to take a bath in, but the wide garden tub sucked for that. We could have gotten a standard tub/shower combo when we ordered the house, but.... Today he's going shopping for an office chair. He'll be working from home for the foreseeable future (the current WFH order expires in July, but the crew pretty much expects that it will be extended), and the chair he's been using for the last year is one that DB and I stopped using four or five years ago. (For reasons not necessarily related to a single person usability - he and I were sharing it, and we had to move it up and down every day, and the lifter started to get cranky - but it wasn't intended to be a 10hour a day chair.) J's been threatening to see if he could sneak into the office and get the chair from his desk, but that's really not plausible (he needs two different people to sign off on his office access *and* make an appointment with security). I finally said "you can just go to Office Depot and buy a chair." "huh. so I can."
Errands today, abbreviated because the list was short. A few things I didn't get, but one of them isn't stocked at the stores I went to, and the others have been out of stock for a couple of weeks already, and I don't expect to see them for another week or so.
