Thursday. Later.

The too-long, ugly couch was picked up this morning by a surly, lower-class Salvation Army worker. Glad to see it go. Thank God that thing is finally gone. Something especially unsavory about a worn-out couch.

New planter arrived today. I want to transplant the old houseplants soon, they've been in those containers for years. Want to find some larger ones.

Basil seems to be drooping a bit after being transplanted yesterday. And trimmed back. It had doubled in size in a week. Loads of marigold seedlings up. I'm thinking about leaving those in the planter box and seeding the front area. Unsure where to put the large-ish flat of vincas I'd bought with Cassidy at Home Depot. Stuck some of them in the planter bed after I transplanted the basil. Found larger containers for the shrimp plants, two out of three survived thus far. They flowered one or two flowers apiece, but the effect @ this size wasn't all that shrimp-like. Pleased to finally have shrimp plants.

Cleaned part of the garage yesterday. There's one final pile of clutter I need to sort through and clean up.

Trimmed the lawn yesterday. Looks somewhat better. Didn't want to mow and cut it too short. Waiting to find the manual for the lawnmower. In the third or fourth drawer with other household-manual type clutter.

Ate the Greek salad I'd ordered last night from Borrelli's. Or Borrego's. Whatever the name of that place is.

The hard drives arrived today. Sort through that folder of clutter so that I have a complete data set ready to be backed up.

A lot of the iTunes songs needed to have their titles tweaked, stuff like that. Unsure that I'll ever get around to any of that, just copy the file of clutter, the iPhoto photos, the iTunes music and that ought to take care of it.
