When Don and I drove to Middletown, DE, we noticed all the horse farms. They looked like very expensive properties and we thought they must be gentlemen farmers. Delaware used to have farms where farmers worked hard to earn a living. They didn’t have the luxurious houses and landscapes. I’ll try to take a photo of some of them next time.
When I got back from walking Danny early this morning, I sat down to drink my coffee and thought I spilled some. I went to brush it off and found out it was a tick on my jacket. EW! I flushed it down the toilet. I check Danny and didn’t find any but he had a dead tick last week tangled in his fur. This damp spring created a lot of ticks and mosquitoes.
I went to Middletown this morning. I took the right turn or should I say left turn or correct turn. The highway where I need to go was blocked off with construction. I went of a detour though a shopping area that was under construction. I came out through Kohl’s parking lot and saw Wal-Mart down the road. I went there hoping to find the room darkening drapery liners but they didn’t have any. I’ll have to order them online.
I got some other things on my list and added some bug killer to spray around the foundation. I just got done doing that. The instructions say to shake well and not to get it on people or pets. Well I shook well and it leaked on me. Yuk! I had to go in and wash the stuff off before I got do the spraying.
I weeded the flower beds. They don’t have much in them right now. I’ll bring some plants from my Vineland home. I hope I can fit them in next time. I have a list of things to bring. I got some blue tape to tape up that purple bedroom and get it painted next time I come.
I got a couple outlet covers as I found two that didn’t have covers. I also got a bigger memory chip for my camera. I needed strainer drain covers for the double sink in the kitchen. I thought how weird they didn’t have any. I’m finding little things I need. I squirted out the trash container. It reeked. I put some Mr. Clean stuff in it yesterday and gave it a good squirting today. I let it dry out in the sun and put a trash bag in it. I found a hose reel behind the shed so I rolled the hose up. It was in the way of cutting the grass and right at the bottom of the back steps where you could trip over it. Looks much neater now.
I like my place here. I can’t wait to move in for good.
