I was awake but didn't feel it.

free coaster ride would have been fun!

This just in:

Our bearded dragons have come out of the closet.

We thought we had two girls, until we caught them humping, and the one appeared to be getting a large belly.

So, Ken just had them checked out, and it turns out they really are both female, the one is just fat, and the pet shop guy said they're "just playing".

So, Smaug and Norbert are officially lesbians.

Well, it's nice to know the novelty of home ownership has not worn off yet.

We've spent most of this weekend's daylight hours doing yard work. You wouldn't think there'd be enough to do in our tiny patio with only a couple even tinier strips of dirt to actually grow things. But then, you probably haven't tried to rip an ivy plant out. That was an epic battle, and the foe is certainly heavily damaged. Only time will tell it was fatal, or if it's got some life left in it (my guess is the war's not over).

I was all excited about getting to replace the rotting fence that the ivy had engulfed. Disappointingly, our neighbors reminded us that the association is slated to beat us to it, theoretically in the next month or two (time to start pestering them). Would have been a fun project. Plus, they're going vinyl. We peeked at the ones that were already done, and they're actually pretty good looking, despite being vinly. But even really well done vinyl is just not the same as wood. Oh well, that effort and money will go to another project I'm sure.

Now we just have to do plant research. Anybody have any good shade gardening tips? We've got one planting area that gets no sun at all, not even filtered. It's not super dark, it gets a lot of indirect light off the wall and glass door across from it, but never actually sees sun.

Well, the whole family went bowling today for my nephew's 10th birthday. Either we all suck at bowling or my Grandma is a bowling genious. At 87 she has never bowled in her life and got at least 5 strikes. Beginnners luck?

So it looks like I'm moving to Portland in the fall. I've updated my LJ with a bit more info if you're interested. I'm tracilicious, as always, on LJ.

Why does gardening have to HURT so much? If I hurt this much now, just 2 hours after coming inside, what levels of pain will I reach tomorrow?!

Hey, Traci- looks like the PNW numbers are going up!
