Dig out the mail box

My mail box got stolen last night and this afternoon one of the local homeowners association ladies e-mailed that she will bring an archeology team in next week into the neighborhood. So I e-mailed back if they could kindly search for my mail box.

ETC

Went to the branch to the 10:45. It was not very full but the branch manager gave a really good homily about the priesthood. I am always amazed how he connects with his homilies. Three of us mice went to breakfast after. Came home, had to clean up Fritz. Read the papers. Running outside fixing a balking sprinkler system. Somebody knocked down mail boxes during the night. Mine is missing, totally gone.....Have to get a new one tonight or tomorrow. With all Christian charity I hope the kid who did this will trip over it somehow and fall flat on his face. I hope it hurts a little.

Another day

At least I did not have to water today. I watered the last two days like crazy. Will have to start again tomorrow. The new plants need to be watered often. Not sure I like my Annabelle hydrangeas. Next year I plan to buy different hydrangeas. Speaking about buying. I will really have to curtail my spending. The market is not picking up. Oh well, I can always eat the dog food with the doggies out of their bowl. Bon appetit!

Squisitos

That is a real chain. We have one close by and it is my favorite pizza place. Lots of choices and fresh, fresh, fresh and no greasy bread rolls. When the grand kids were here we were forced to eat lunch at a Pizza Hut recently. Horrible. Squisitos is hands down the best chain for delicious Italian food.

Roses and Lavender

I love the smell of roses and of lavender. So today I got some mini bottles of rose oil and lavender oil. Now that I have it, I have to figure out a way to make the house smell good. Dab it here and there on wood surfaces. I did it once before and I think it worked. Can't remember it's been so long. I will it again.

Fritz

Fritz, the fiance, is teething. He was under the weather the other day which was unusual and I just happened to open his mouth and there are was another set of lower incisor teeth coming up next to his baby teeth. Pretty soon we won't have to yelp: "Ouch!" when he nibbles us. The second teeth are not as sharp. I combed out his fur the other day and he took it for a while in good humor to have all the matting yanked out. In the afternoon he has adjusted beautifully to the family rosary. Fritz on one side of me, New Jerusalem on the other side and Parsley at my feet. I am sure the Blessed Mother is pleased. Woof!

Golden Casket

I opened the paper this morning and the King of Pop was buried in a golden casket. It's difficult to keep your coffee down. Went to the office this morning. Everyone is on vacation except Ms. Hitchley and me. The mice met for breakfast. I bought two hibiscus plants today and a crepe myrtle and a rose. White of course. I hope the rose is more disease resistant than what we have had so far. I plan to plant a few more roses next year. The Church of the Crucified is getting the dynamite black hood which I recommended to them. Lord it has taken them forever to get moving on this. My flyer suggestions for the fall bible class have been graciously rejected although the bible class itself has been accepted. Just as well. I won't have to deal with the distribution etc.
