One More Try

I hung a bird house next to the front door last year and no birds ever made use of it.

I just hung one in the same spot. I figured I’d give it one more try.

The Blind Selfies the Blind

We were outside looking at the eclipse as it hit its peak. Something like 92% eclipsed. Way to go, Moon!

I tried to take a selfie of us with the glasses on. It’s tough to do when the glasses literally blind you. I did my best. Laugh at our goofiness.

Generations

I re-potted Bertha the Plant Clipping today. She’s in my step son’s room with me right now, sitting in front of the window and hopefully not dying.

Bertha the Plant Clipping is the plant on the right. The plant on the left is Bertie Botts Every Flavour Plant Clipping, which was clipped off of Bertha. Does that make Bertie the next generation, or is it the same generation in a different pot? What are the language rules on this kind of thing?

Bertie Botts Every Flavour Plant Clipping is still alive, but in the couple of weeks since I took her out of the glass of water and put her in a pot of dirt she hasn’t grown any new leaves. Bertha looked half dead (I did a lot of pruning off dead leaves today) and she’s grown two new leaves in the same amount of time. I’m getting worried about our little Berttie Botts.

Musical Cat

Robin is a musical cat because she spent more time with my guitar today than I did.

Personal Torture Device

I got myself a new personal torture device. I used it for five minutes and died of a heart attack 11 times. Honestly.

Hidden

Roar

Pre-Fab

Pre-fab furniture, like a boss.

The kitchen remodel eternal.

Lunch

If the weather ever gets nicer (that’s a big if) I’ll do this outside on the grill.

New Strings

My 2000 Les Paul Standard 50’s has new strings. Now if I just had calluses on my finger tips and had the nine songs on my to-do list all practiced up and rehearsal ready. Ugh.

Hipstamatic shake to shuffle to celebrate.
