Random 3 for October 11, 2026 – Fall clean up, flowers, drudgery work

It’s a short one today. It wasn’t an interesting week and no amount of snark can make it interesting!

Clean up week – There is a sadness about pulling out all the annual flowers. One day beautiful flowers are bouncing around your yard and the next day they are gone. I always do it before the first frost because the weather gets iffy after that. I don’t like working outside in the cold. I must get used to the bare look. It will be bare until May.

No mum yet – I usually plop a nice chrysanthemum on the front stoop after I pull the flowers. I was scheduled to make a trip to a big garden center, but my body said nope not today. I can pick one up locally but a day trip with a friend is a lot more fun.

This and that – It was a week of visiting retirement communities, reviewing health care plans and other equally uninteresting things. There is a lot of stuff that needs renewal or review this time of year. Truth be told I don’t like spending time on it at any time of the year. This is almost as bad as doing taxes!

Here is your thought for today!

So how was your week?
