Sad day.<\/p>
Put cow manure on the small roses, the butterfly bush and the peony.<\/p>
A little more cleanup in the front corner and herb gardens. \u00a0Raked\u00a0the front.\u00a0\u00a0Swept the deck.<\/p>
Transfer station. \u00a0Laundry and sheets.<\/p>
Ron got a good start power washing the front of the house. \u00a0He replaced an O-ring and got good results.<\/p>
Watched the finale of the Downton Abbey last season. \u00a0Very disappointing: \u00a0Edith’s heart is broken once again by a cowardly wimp; Cora is invisible as a mother, leaving it to Grandmama to give Mary a lesson in life and love. \u00a0Carson completes his transformation from lovable curmudgeon to mean-spirited, petulant, homophobic crank.<\/p>
To be fair, there were at least three high points: \u00a0Branson’s ripping into Lady Mary; Edith’s doing the same; and Lady Mary’s brief yet merciless chastisement of Papa for his threats to fire poor Thomas. \u00a0Well deserved, every one. \u00a0 Not to mention Mrs. Crowley’s barbed\u00a0conversation with\u00a0Lord Merton’s future daughter-in-law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
