nigella needs a helping hand

jinianLately my head and joints are feeling worse, and I'm starting to have allergy issues enough that I woke up with a nasty sinus headache today. But my foot might possibly be feeling a little better, I'm not sure yet. If I can get that bit fixed so my stride becomes reasonable again, my leg joints and muscles will be much happier. Not walking is frustrating, though.
After days of rain and then days of unpredictable fun weather, it's sunny and utterly clear today, 75F with a delicious breeze. I suspect that cool breezes are the leading cause of sunburn in this world; I was rather counting on the automatic control mechanism of "it is TOO HOT weeding the traffic circle, so I will go inside BEFORE two and a half hours have passed." This is not what happened. Aloe has been applied.
The traffic circle is looking good, though. The little nigellas that reseeded from last year are spindly and many are not surviving even with the unusual amount of rain we've had, but some are taking off now that they're not completely overshadowed by enormous grasses. Definitely putting some salpiglossis out there soon. I've weeded about 2/3 of the way around, and then I have to deal with the middle somehow.
I do not have my replacement Zipcard yet, which is making my plans for today much more annoying. I have to go to my littlest cousin's college graduation party, but I can't get there and back within a reasonable time without a car, and I want to see the "Battle of the Sexes" and "Stag Films" anthologies at the Grand Illusion tonight. Hopefully Wim will get home soon and I can steal his.
