Yard
Hopalong:
Got it.
That's exactly the clarity I needed about timing.
Thanks, Lighter.

It's cool planting weather and I'm elbow deep in a laundry room update. Everything changing.
Took doors off cabinets....looks so much bigger! I'll spackle, add trim pieces and paint....add wallpops behind them...these tiles look just like tile, very shiny, but are vinyl. So pretty. New floor....putting weathered barn look on ceiling, which will cover the rough patch around light.
Editing closet in that space to hang laundry or dry it. Will only put things I use for laundry in those cabinets, which means organizing other spaces as I go.
Tupp, you motivated me to brighten, edit and tidy up my space before winter.

Nice neighbor coveted my water lilies and hyacinth yesterday. Said he just put in a pond.
With Koi.
One died already. I think Koi ponds are hard. Well beyond my pay grade, for sure.
Neighbor said he has 3 huge trash bags of roof moss to trade for water plants, which is great. I have elderly neighbor's side yard to finish planting around her new dry creek bed. The moss from my yard isn't thriving there...needs more shade, while the parking lot moss is. Very excited about it, anyway.
Neighbor thought he'd plant some around his pond, but the roof moss won't live around a pond. I'll harvest some for him, and enjoy seeing that come together. Will get moss covered rocks and wood to really make it look natural.

I think fish are quite hard work, Lighter, quite delicate if I remember rightly and so conditions, water, food etc very important. Easy to get it wrong. Hopefully he won't lose any more. The moss all sounds lovely :) xx

Well.....we went to see new pond today, and......
it
Is
fabulous.
100 gallons...rocked in by professionals...no fish we could see, so guessing they all suffered same fate as the first. Not sure.
I noticed it's full sun, in front yard. The neighbor said shade, but I don't think he pays enough attention to know, so...must plant creek moss elsewhere and scrape some parking lots for his project.
He dropped off 3 huge garbage bags of roof moss today. Really pretty stuff.
The journey continues.
