Today was gorgeous, though windy, which meant R's crabbing expedition didn't happen. So instead we went for a nice walk through the neighborhood and then down on the marsh trail along the dike, with lovely views over the bay. The dogs were very happy, until afterwards when we had to spend 30 min puling burrs out of their fur.
Since then, I made the grapefruit/lemon sorbet, set up a pea trellis, planted some basil & cosmos & puttered around. OH, and picked strawberries! Both our June-bearing & ever-bearing varieties are fruiting like crazy lately. Those pictured here are just from today's picking, with tomatoes for reference (tomatoes not from the garden- yet!).
Anyway, found out 2 new bits of information today:
1) The baby shower was today. I wasn't even notified out of courtesy. Granted I wouldn't have been able to go, but they didn't even invite my MOM! I guess my brother has always been attracted to dysfunction, and now that he finally has it, he doesn't need us 'normies' around anymore.
2) I'm starting at the park July 1, scheduled to work Tu-Sat 9-5:30, crappy hours, since we only have one car, but it's amazing I got Sunday off. I strongly suspect I won't be doing much naturalist work at all though, likely all cleaning bathrooms/fee booth/pulling weeds type stuff. Hooray, glad I have 2 bachelor's degrees.
