There were three days of reasonable weather b4 today, so daughter and I got an hour or so of yardwork done each day, filled three bins b4 trash day and two more yesterday, but this is definitely "indoor work" weather.

Oh, how I wish. But think it will be a couple of more months until BC sees temps like those. *fingers crossed* that wildfire season won't be as bad as last year.
I just want it to dry out enough so I can get out on my balcony and sweep around the drain hole. I've noticed a lot of dirt build up.

So today I made chicken tagine with apricots, cauliflower for hubby and me, rice for dear daughter, and tzaziki.
Kind of ethnically mixed up- Moroccan and Middle Eastern, but I was looking for something easy to fix with not a lot of cooking. Tomorrow, still hot, so I'm defrosting roast pork and making pulled pork and cole slaw. Again, not a lot of cooking.

Exactly. Suppose to rain tomorrow morning then dry out in the afternoon and possibly Thursday. At least that is what I am hoping for.

Despite sleeping like sh*t the past few night, I felt pretty chipper this AM.
Noticed that the scrub jays were having a hard time finding the peanuts in all of the fallen avocado leaves (this is the time of year when they blossom AND lose their leaves! Raking- definitely in the future!) so I raked a clear spot b4 putting out peanuts. They must be nesting nearby bc one would fly off with a peanut for a short while ... less than a minute... b4 coming back for another one.
Did indoor stuff today, git thru all of the mail, started ANOTHER pot of beans (! Keeping us in corn and bean soup is a full-time occupation. But it is such a satisfying and healthful b'fast), tidying up, dishes and so forth. Made the pulled pork and salad for dinner, as planned, and came up with the weekly menu and grocery list.
Not many good sales this week tho. Fortunately my small meat freezer is adequately stocked. Prices are going up A LOT!
Tomorrow I see the radiation oncologist to get the treatment schedule. I have a ?? for her which I hope she will research for the answer.
AC on again today. AM dog walks are pretty short, given how hot it's been. This is supposed to be spring! By Monday, they are predicting rain. Jeez! Roller coaster weather!

Suppose to get some more rain here tomorrow then dry out again. If it is dry enough tomorrow afternoon again, when I get home I will go out and sweep around the drain hole. *fingers crossed* on that plan.
