stuff unrelated to other stuff

My timing is great. I got home about 5 days before the first freesia flowers opened! they smell divine. Some mornings I can smell them when I open the front door- and only 3 flowers are open as yet. Wow. I have promised at least some of  this years crop of freesia pills to [personal profile] mrsbrown. I planted the gleaned pills from last year, they have sprouted and have flower stalks, yay.

I was going to spend today tidying away the piles of stuff that are littering the house. I was going to do this ages ago but my neck went out. Then a few weeks later my back went out. Then I went overseas for a month. Today, I was going to get in there, really. The supermarket hijacked me and I spent the rest of the morning cooking instead. I did get a bit of tidying done. Even sort of washed the kitchen floor. Now I need to thoroughly wash it after dropping a tray containing a substantial amount of molten lamb grease, ick. A job for the morning, not now.

Went to see Dark Knight today with J, D and [community profile] erudito. I really like action films but am not keen on the violence. How does one get an action film without violence? suppose I shall just have to continue covering my eyes at appropriate points. Heath was disturbingly fantastic.  Would have been disturbing even without knowing we have lost him.

Friday I was out at 7am zeroing the weeds. Is that weird? Well the forecast was for rain all weekend and the course I was to go to on Friday gave me a good hour more time in the morning than usual. Grab that chance!

Not quite sure how you do an action film without violence, although I'm reminded of the fact that the coolest toy of my childhood never had any guns or suggestions of violence.What the world needs now is more people who played with Lego as kids.
