Great Progress

On a couple of things today. First is the big project that you see here. I have about half of it cleared out now and covered. Had some new poison ivy coming up that hubby pulled for me. Some of the area left I will have to use the loppers to cut out. But I can see it being finished soon.
The other great progress was the kittens. One of them slowly came to me to be petted. When she decided it felt good enough to purr about it the other 2 came closer. So hopefully soon I can let them have some freedom. They have a good sized area right now. But I want to let them enjoy the yard.
I unloaded the truck for hubby as he still isn't supposed to lift much. He had 2 bags of dog food and a mineral block. We put the block in the wagon and he used the mower to pull it out to George horse. That made him a happy pony.
Hope you had a good day.

I had a fantastic day when my mental health doctor examined me at home via telehealth and told me to use ice to place on my swollen left knee that was injured in a fall on the floor at a supermarket.

@Deepizzaguy You fell in the supermarket? How scary and painful. Those floors are rock hard. Take care.

@sallypup I am doing the best I can to slow down walking inside supermarkets with my slippers on.

@Deepizzaguy I hope your slippers have good tread on them- tread that grabs the floor as you walk.

I am working slowly at it. Wanted to get that covered so I didn't have to clear it again
That's a great start

You are getting so much done. The vacant house used to have tons of poison ivy, so periodically I still find it growing in places on that side of the yard. I usually pour bleach on it and kill it that way. I am glad the kitties are coming around.

@wolfgirl569 - Some flowers may look pretty, but they become soon too invasive.

It does. It looked great when I first planted the lilies in there. But then those morning glories started taking over.

I'm glad George got a nice treat today... You aren't nice enough to him lately... 
I wasn't feeling very well today. I stayed in bed and slept.
Hope you have a good night.

@DaddyEvil I think the material fascinates him.

He keeps trying to steal my shorts when I go visit him. So I don't visit
Hope you start feeling better.

It's pretty until winter time. The house is all block so absorbs the cold

Hi Eva
You really have done quite a lot today.
Glad hubby got the poison ivy out
It's great when kitten starts to trust us
It's quite exciting
They will be out and running around before you know it
We used to give our ponies a mineral block as well and they loved it
Glad George Horse was happy

I am hoping to let the kitties out soon. They don't need to be pets but I don't want them running away.
Lots of animals love them

It's a solid block of salt and other minerals mixed for animals to lick
