19-20 August Tuesday, Wed.



I made progress! I got my targa. It turned out to not even be that hard. I printed out the letter from the insurance without problem. The agent at Camarino looked at my paperwork and immediately set about getting me a targa. I was a little worried as she got on the phone a couple times and the whole process took maybe 20 minutes, but it all worked out well.

On the way back I visited Pfister, a snazzy furniture store. Their showroom and furniture is beautiful but ridiculously expensive. Lipo was much more like what I was looking for. At Tenero I got some other things like laundry hamper, trash cans, outdoor stuff, shoes, and a hair cutter.

I came home to cut the roses to smithereens. By 7:30 I was exhausted and could only make dinner, watch some TV (the Olympics aren’t on much at night), listen to some music and go to bed. Sometimes just sitting on the balcony and staring at Locarno makes me happy.

On 8.20
I woke with a headache and felt pretty out of sorts. After writing and having breakfast I went back to sleep for a couple of hours. I figured I was just tired out from the nonstop motion and the overwhelming to do list. I decided to take it easy and follow my bliss. Thus I attacked the bush/tree. I used to call it a bush, but since it’s almost a meter taller than I am, I think it’s fair to call it a tree. I got pretty far with pruning shears and the old saw. But after lunch I needed to go see if Marianne had any better equipment. That sealed the deal. Now I have a lawn covered with dead branches.
