Well, the "13th" started on the 11th and just.got.better. :-/




:-)) Well thankfully for me, yesterday (which was the 13th in this part

of the world) went well for me. I had booked in for a cancer checkup

before noticing that the test was going to be on Friday the 13th. I'm

not particularly superstitious but most people who had the sort of

cancer history that I do, would have had second thoughts about

proceeding on such a day. Thankfully, I got a clear report.



So happy for that. Continued best wishes !!!



Phones for about half our street went out on the 11th and weren't


restored until this afternoon. Then, the power went out suddenly this


morning even though a minor storm that blew in had been over and done


for hours. Seems our local power co had a lovely planned outage. If


they'd tried to call to warn us we wouldn't have known. If it was


anything like the last "upgrade" they didn't warn anyone anyway.


*grump*




So, it wasn't raining and the temperature was in the upper 70s with


humidity at only 2000% or thereabouts. So, DH and I decided to check


out the garden and see what was ready to harvest. Lo and behold the


Cubanelle peppers I put in the bed affected by Mysterious Pepper Wilt


had gone crazy. Not only were they not wilted, they had each produced


a large pepper so I picked all three. I have plans for them.




What are you going to do with them?


I want to know too !!!!??
