I received my Rollator today. It was mostly put together but did have 3 things I had to put together on it, but they were fast and easy to do. I practiced using it in my hallway and love it. It will make a great addition when I want to sit while I garden outdoors this year. No more dragging chairs from the patio.
I chose the red one to easily see it among the black ones my neighbors have. It will be easy to spot in a crowd. Works great and holds up to 300 lbs. so safe for me with lots of weight to spare.
I started some seeds indoors this spring. I used some drink cups I cut back to about 2 1/2" and filled with potting soil. I did not have any seed-starting mix but the potting mix did not have any big chunks in it so it worked fine and will feed my seeds for weeks. If there were any chunks, I could just sift them out.
I did not have a dome to cover them either, but I found this plastic plate cover which I fitted over the tops to keep the moisture in. It worked. My seeds have germinated now and are starting to grow.
I chose both garlic and onion chives, bunching onion (also called spring and green onions), and flat-leaf Italian parsley. Even the parsley that often takes up to 3 weeks to germinate, popped up a couple of heads in a week. Looking good today.
Good sunny day today so it gives one hope for spring.
Among my latest projects I worked on an old wall hanging, my Yellow Roses in stained-glass style. I have since layered and pinned it with batting and backing and hope to get some quilting done on it today. This project has been sitting around in a container for over 2 years. Its about time I got back to it.
I am trying to only sew or go on my computer in 15-minute sessions. My neck and shoulders do not ache when I use those limits and I get more done even though I have to rest in between sessions. I even use the clock timer on my phone to keep me on schedule.
There it goes. I have to say good-bye for now.
