From my 2nd walk today

Remember my poppies?
You 'member

Those were pretty before my neighbor would steal them (but only the red ones).

It took 10 years but my son finally got me with his fake spider.

+10 years ago we would put his creepy crawlers in various locations trying to scare each other.

~10 years ago I remember him saying "you haven't found the spider."

I spent some time braced for it.

Apparently it takes me 10 years before I get up on a ladder to paint above a set of cabinets. Yes, it startled me when I saw it out of the corner of my eye. Even he forgot where he put it, so he says.

Tomorrow, when I do the second cut in and clean the top of the cabinets, the spider goes back into play.

I won't be bested.

Today my acting 40-something yo son is inspecting the wood fence rails and informing me about the state of the rot. He may go to the home improvement store to purchase some replacements he tells me.

He starts work mid October.

Happy hump day, friends.✌️

Simple thing caught my eye 🪶

No one tell my son that I am not watering the lawn a third time today for the over-seeding.
He's 22, he should do 22yo things like he is currently and not care about whether my lawn is healthy.
I've been doing this all day for "mostly twice" - I'm very bad with spatial aspects. I don't know how he moves the sprinkler so few times.
I've sprayed myself in the face 7x. My hair is a mess, not in a good way.
I did see a monarch though. My bad sprinkler placement brings the monarchs to my yard.

Omg, you can't make this up....

"Beverly and Bill were visiting Florida when Bill started experiencing pain in his side. They went to Sacred Heart Emerald Coast Hospital. Beverly says Dr. Thomas Shaknovsky told her he needed his spleen removed immediately.

During the surgery, Bill died. The hospital's pathology report says the organ Dr. Shaknovsky removed was labeled "spleen" but was actually his liver.

“He bled to death on the operating room table. Everyone knows you can't live without your liver.""

Welp
Kinda upset my 22yo but think I turned the conversation around.

I made a comment about how when I eventually sell the house, I'm selling it with the Parabody in it bc I'm not gonna try to take it apart and move it.

He was like "but would you ever move from here?" and I said "well, eventually I'll have to because the stairs will eventually get too hard for me" so then he said "but you're pretty active" and I said "it just eventually happens, plus, I'll move if you move" and that's when he said "but the garden."

My back garden is important to more than me and that's clear.

So I tried to save this with "well, assuming we aren't thrown into autocracy, and if you want when I'm too old for stairs, I'll sell you the house at a fair price and you can take care of the garden," he followed with "you assume I might be able to afford a house someday given the market," and then I closed the conversation with "in the patriarchal autocracy, I probably lose my ability to own this house or my bank account, so ask that you, as the presumed new owner, still let me live here while I can climb the stairs."

Well, this should help secure a Democratic Party Vote from all government employees.

Trump announces horrifying new job for Elon Musk if elected

"He said he would tap Elon Musk to run a new agency focused on government “efficiency.”

“I will create a government efficiency commission tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government,” he said during a speech at the Economic Club of New York, adding Musk has “agreed to head that task force.”"

You know this, right?

If you accidentally drop your (relatively small) scoop of ice cream on the counter, the 5 second rule applies AND if it has any chocolate in it, the calories don't count.

Whoops.

Relayed a notebook lady story to my 22yo, who I find insightful af btw, and he asks "does your new tracker have relaxation breathing exercises?"

My anxiety kicked in high at this point.

"Hello, have you met me? When do you ever see me focus on one thing, let alone that one thing be my breathing? I tried that alone the first 2 days I had it and I think I kept failing breathing because it kept buzzing and my heart rate kept getting higher and higher, stress, like freaking playing Operation, and all I kept thinking was why can't I figure out how to stop this, can I just try removing the wish bone instead?!"

Gawd...
You give your job so much and in return, they finally give you a moment of peace...
