Sunday Salon finds me frustrated. My lap top has had issues, so I'm forced to wait till one of the guys is not using their computers to do "anything" . My husband has some weird program on that keeps asking me if I'm him. Way too much security, wait till he sees I've "fixed that". It's been an unusual week, other than I'm still waiting for workmen to get to me and do things they have been paid for. I told my husband that it was his job to wait, but then again I can't exactly have him staying home from work to wait. So it's me... that means I'll be missing my watercolour workshop tomorrow. DANG! The inside job is very SLOW! and there are no inside fairies at work. A dear friend is not doing well, and I suspect she'll give up. SAD, all around story. Why do some people just have it so hard?
The rest of the week I imagine will be a bit of this and a bit of that. It is suppose to cool down, so I'm hoping to use "pesticides" on my lillies, imagine a bug eating my beautiful lillies, one day they were there and then they weren't.
I try really hard not to use pesticides, but this did it, between the red spider bite, and no I'm not radioactive, but I still have a hard unhealed spot in the area where I was bitten, so pesticides it is. We here in the GTA are not permitted to use harsh chemicals so I'm not sure what I bought will be very effective, but dish liquid just didn't do it.On the reading front, I finished Change of Climate, Hilary Mantel, a good story, which I enjoyed reading, even if it left me very sad. I can't remember who reviewed it, but thank you for suggesting it. It was well worth the trip to the library.

Ralph and Anna Eldred are an exemplary couple,
devoting themselves to doing good. Thirty years ago as missionaries in
Africa, the worst that could happen did. Shattered by their encounter
with inexplicable evil, they returned to England, never to speak of it
again. But when Ralph falls into an affair, Anna finds no forgiveness in
her heart, and thirty years of repressed rage and grief explode,
destroying not only a marriage but also their love, their faith, and
everything they thought they were.
My young niece is a missionary, and we worry.
up next, The Wives of Los Alamos, Tarashea Nesbit. I'm not quite half way through, but so far all I can say is "we've come a long way baby..." or have we?
