Everything Fred – Part 448

11 October 2024

I took the day off. I needed to catch up on some things around the house and I knew I was losing energy.

The good news is Chris is either home tonight or will be tomorrow. Tom is in rehab for a few days and is better. Jim and Holley restocked Kurt and then took Tom some Tom Jenkins barbecue with collards, chicken, and sweet potato pie. Yum!

I didn’t rake leaves nor wash down the patio but I did get some iguana poop off the pool deck. I then cleaned the pool filter and added chemicals. After that, I called it a day.

I crawled up in bed and read for about 30 minutes and then took a nap.

After I got out of bed, I put an order in to Whole Foods, stocking up on a few items on which I was running low. Delivery is set between the hours of 7 and 9 pm.

I did manage a 1.2 mile walk this morning. The temp was 74°F but the humidity was 91%. Yet it was a pleasant walk with the break in temperature.

At my favorite yard, I saw a Slender Dwarf Morning Glory in bloom.

Dwarf Morning Glory (Evolvulus glomerata)

It has a beautiful blue flower and, indeed, is a member of the morning glory family (Convolvulaceae). It’s an annual and makes a good ground cover.

Tonight will be an early night.

Stay tuned!
