The table might be gone by the time i get home tonight. I wrote Whole House Building Supply, an eco-salvage yard, and while they don't take most furniture (bookshelves and cabinetry seem to be the exceptions), my correspondent was interested. Greycie Loo will be disappointed: she's grown fond of it as a perch. (Of course there are *two* similar cat friendly perches near the table, but those are clearly for cats.)
Note to self: one can't just run into the grocery to buy a dozen roses at 9:40 pm. There will be two doods who aren't paying attention, who manage to let their groceries get rung up with the previous person's, and who generally gum up the limited check-out options.
I did get to the airport just as Christine was ready for curbside pickup. Unfortunately, SFO was a traffic jam, astounding traffic back up -- i've no idea what was going on. I decided $2 for parking was worth it to speed along our reunion: that was quick and easy. Comic, too, as i realized she was just two floors down as we talked on our phones, so i went down the stairs, but she was already in the elevator. We met on the second floor to the amusement of the guy getting out of the elevator. So quick, we didn't owe for parking. What could have had traffic backed up almost to the 101 exit ramp, i wonder?
She noted how the bedroom smelling of cat* smelled like home. *sigh* It's true, and i notice it when i get back from a trip, and then it fades from consciousness. It does make me wonder if visitors find our place stinks of cat. It's not simply litter box but also the food and probably more general mammal smells... *sigh*
Dress and dishes remain on the decrufting list.
I did finish the top of the hassock cosy yesterday. I think it looks rather attractive. I've some mindless crochet work to do on the last side, then i need to figure out how to piece together the parts. I won a yarn auction on eBay for some more yarn: that solves the major problem i was considering. I remain amazed at how much yarn crochet uses up.
I ought to take some photos of the garden. The lemon tree is blooming again, the volunteer tomato is clearly a small cherry tomato and covered with green fruit, the ginger is going to bloom. While many of the flowering plants are past their prime, it's still lush. One scented geranium, in particular, is blooming with the showiest flowers i've seen on a scented geranium. I pulled many dead needle clusters from the sequoia, close to the trunk. I hope it's just annual shedding and not water stress.
