Pre Christmas

Wednesday: (12/23) I spent some time in the garden weeding. Lot of pesky sprouts. That made me quite muddy so I cleaned up with a shower and relaxed the rest of the day. I plan on adding two more garden spots about equivalent to the existing two spots so this will be even more work in the future. Soft boiled eggs for breakfast. Zucchini noodles with meatballs for lunch. Rice pudding for dinner.

Thursday: (12/24) Happy birthday to both Lou's and my mothers today. Both would have been 110 years old today. Both missed out on normal birthday recognition due to proximity to the Christmas holiday. 

A nice clear day. We took a walk around the neighborhood. We checked out the construction project down the street. They were making noise this morning after being quiet all week. I thought that meant they wanted to be ready for some work next week. I was right. They moved in drilling and cementing equipment in preparation of shoring up to dig out the parking basement of the apartment complex. Goody, let the show begin. It was almost like Christmas today. Three deliveries by UPS and Prime and one from the Post Office. Lou and Dawn made roasted chicken with mashed potatoes and corn for breakfast. Lunch from Los Altos Taqueria.  
 
The rabbit keeps enjoying his pumpkin. I received the new screen door handle, finally. It disappeared in the Post Office for more than a month then suddenly made it out and to here.

 
The garden spots look better with less weeds.

 
The apartment building being built on the  corner moved some equipment onto the site this morning. The drills and cement mixer for the shoring. We didn't get down to inspect until after they were through moving it. We can expect some more noise for a while.
