Wind on the weathervane

Shawshank, July 30, 2020July 30, 2020
Since I got here, I've adopted a few chores. Like taking out the trash when it appears by the door. Vacuuming. Sous chef when needed, and each night I water the 3 tomato plants, the cucumbers, and the strawberries. 

Originally, the plants were my grammas, but she doesn't get around very well at all anymore, and can't navigate stairs while holding a watering can. Sometimes she'll go out and look at them, and complain that it's taking too long for them to ripen, and that all the cucumbers are dead. 

I can tell you that the cucumbers aren't dead,  and they're about the size of dill pickles right now. Each night I'll water them (2 water containers – if it's just one, the tomatoes droop), I've been good at remembering to water them. 
I think my mom thought I forgot last night, and watered them this morning. More water for the water God! 
But right now, I really need some more coffee. Shady Acres is slowly starting to wake up. I'll let my gramma do her breakfast routine, and then I'll get another cup of coffee. 

This afternoon, I'll drop some more stuff off at the second hand store. The stuff I'm dropping off are some DVDs, and some books, I believe. I hope I'm helping enough around the house. 
Happy Thursday from TinyTown!

Good morning everyone! It’s Saturday, and it’s dark outside. I’m up with coffee, and Crystal is becoming human. It was a glorious lazy day here at the Flat. We played a couple of hours of Cat Quest 2, and gained about 7 or 8 levels. It’s a really fun game….
