I drove in light rain to my hair appointment, and the rain continued as I drove home. Claude still wanted to collect my dragon leaf begonias to store at his house.
Claude came about 1:30 p.m. and put the begonias in his car. I took some stems and, hopefully, will get them to root.
Claude told me about Beethoven's symphonies that will be playing during the New York marathon and I wanted to show him how I listen to music through my speakers. Unfortunately, I wasn't getting any sound from them. He fixed that by securing the wires; now they work fine. I'm looking forward to listening to a new station.
My digital clock hasn't had the correct information since I hung it up. Claude put that in order.
Laura's CARE package dinner from last night came in handy to share with Claude: bacon-wrapped meat loaf, mashed potatoes and red cabbage from her garden. We started with pumpkin soup that I made yesterday, and finished with cream cheese topped brownies that I made for a memorial service.
Claude finished my balcony by pulling out the entire root systems from the two planters. I have two large plastic bags for composting.
I'm leaving the coleus until the frost kills them. They are still so lovely.
I finished a shawl while I watched the Dodgers beat the Blue Jays in a heart-breaking game. The Jays were leading the entire game until the ninth inning when the Dodgers tied it; they won 5 - 4 in the 11th inning.
