Managed to spot that I wasn't getting all the meds that I ordered at the chemist. If I hadn't, I would have had to make the trip there and back again. So I saved myself some time.

Funny coincidence ...
My daughter is asleep on my couch right now.
First day my daughter and wife were both off work on the same day in months. They did a bunch of stuff and she crashed in front of our TV during the "Flash" series.

Amber encountered a BumbleBee in her bed recently.  Now she has a bee sting allergy, but, it didn't sting her and she knows how passive Bumblebees are, she didn't panic and caught it in a glass and released it outdoors.   8)

Good for her.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Started work for a new client. Nice to have more than one at a time.

Muted the news cast as I waited for the weather report!

I moved patio furniture from one side of the acreage to the other and set up a nice little sitting area in a place where it will be used more.

Sounds like your setting up a little bower!   My adopted Mum-in-law in Alberta Canada has had one for many years.  Setup underneath the shelter of a massive evergreen tree.  And that's exactly what she called it, her bower.  I did try to make one at our house in Fryeburg Maine.  But, it took a little climbing up and down a steep incline and never amounted to much.  More like a tree cave.   :dunno:  Nice place for me to hide out from Jehovah's Witnesses!   :P

Carla and I took a walk in downtown Rochester NH to enjoy good weather and get in the fragrance of the Lilac Flowers before they are gone.  Rochesters city name is "The Lilac City" and there are a lot of them around.  Because of our normal trips to Kentucky at this time of year.  We miss a lot of it.  And I love Lilacs very much.  So with staycation in place we have been indulging our senses as compensation for not traveling.  Though I must admit, saving money on planes, buses, rental cars and B&B's and restaurants will also look good when I get the credit card bill.   8)

I have the best memories of the bower at my grandparents home. It was under this massive old weeping willow. I'm not sure yet where I'll set this one up. I had originally thought the paved square right outside the glass sliding doors at the back of the house but due to the placement of the bbq, our view would be of a brick wall of the house which isn't what I was aiming for. :P The furniture is bigger than I expected now that I see it in the space.

But your post reminded me that under the big old birch tree could be an option. We have a fire pit table thing to set up as well. Just have to see if it's stable enough there. That could be a really pretty arrangement. Although HB would be pissed to constantly have to move the furniture every time we cut the lawn with the tractor. lol

Willows are also great for Bowers.  As for HB, if he loves you, he will adapt.  It's a pain yes, but, worth the serenity long term.

Took a walk down the driveway to get the mail.  Started walking down the steep part and was hit with the splendid fragrance of Honey Suckle and other flowering shrubs and trees.  When the Lilacs fade away, these will last a bit longer and make for a great walk!  <bliss>
