they were on sale at lowe&#8217;s, because all the plants are on sale because summer must be about halfway over by now although to me it feels like it&#8217;s just begun.<\/p>\n<p>i planted lots and lots and LOTS of marigolds yesterday, and some flowers called &#8220;feathers&#8221; and they actually looked good when i bought them but today many of them were kind of droopy so i kept watering them in between painting and doing other things.<\/p>\n<p>i&#8217;m hoping that tomorrow they&#8217;ll all look fabulous.<\/p>\n<p>OK, here&#8217;s the link to the house tour.<\/p>\n<p>there&#8217;s going to be an OPEN HOUSE NEXT SUNDAY, so please go look at it if you want to, tell anybody you know who might be interested in buying a very lovely, neat and clean house.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.visualtour.com\/show.asp?T=1571920\">TOUR OF OUR HOUSE FOR SALE!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>anyway, at least i got to see some fireworks on the 4th of july.\u00a0 well, we saw a few of them down on the dock on the 4th, but last night, the 5th, mom and i went to the motor boat club and saw a bunch of them up close.\u00a0 we couldn&#8217;t get anybody else to go with us, but next year kevin WILL GO WATCH THEM WITH ME.<\/p>\n<p>i love fireworks.<\/p>\n<p>something happened to my phone; there seemed to be something wet in my purse although i couldn&#8217;t figure out what, and for a while none of the number on the front worked, but then they all worked except for 5.\u00a0 so i can&#8217;t call anybody with a 5 in their number.\u00a0 randy is 5 on my speed dial, but now i can&#8217;t speed dial him.\u00a0 i also can&#8217;t call him because there is a five in his phone number.\u00a0 luckily i can look him up and it will dial for me, because otherwise it would be hopeless.<\/p>\n<p>tomorrow morning i have to go buy a new phone.\u00a0 everybody around here seems overly pleased about this; yes, it&#8217;s an old-style phone that doesn&#8217;t even TAKE PICTURES but why would i want to take pictures with my phone anyway?\u00a0 plus when i drop it it always works anyway.<\/p>\n<p>but with no 5, now is the time to buy a new phone.<\/p>\n<p>the thing is, i feel that i&#8217;m so ridiculously overly-busy trying to do way way way too many things, that the last thing i need is to try to figure out how to work a new phone.<\/p>\n<p>but like i said, now is the time.\u00a0 five-less.<\/p>\n<p>overly is clearly the word of the night.\u00a0 it&#8217;s hard to type here in the dark, but the only light in this room right now is an overhead light which would injure my eyeballs i&#8217;m sure.<\/p>\n<p>next weekend we&#8217;re going to GO TO THE MOVIES.<\/p>\n<p>if i write it in all caps, somehow i feel that that will make it so.<\/p>\n<p>i think i actually fell asleep a half hour ago.\u00a0 perhaps maybe if i go lie down again i won&#8217;t wake up till morning.<\/p>\n<p>ok ok ok already,<\/p>\n<p>sunday night grace.\u00a0 IN JULY.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>i don&#8217;t even know where my computer is, for one thing.\u00a0 we went to bed at 10 tonight, ridiculously over-tired, but then i couldn&#8217;t sleep because i&#8217;ve been thinking about everything in the world, plus more. today&#8230;kevin FINISHED THE ROOF.\u00a0 this really needs some fanfare, because that roof has taken a very very long time [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[7],"class_list":["post-1201","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-moving"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p6JLYy-jn","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1201","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1201"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1201\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1201"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1201"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1201"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
