 
So, assuming I am better on Saturday, my knitting group is meeting at the Liberty Market at 4.m. Feel free to join us.

today
Woke up with what I suspect might be pinkeye. So no errands. Lame.
Guess I’ll buckle down and fill out my ballot then.
And get some gift knitting done.
tomorrow
 
work emails, saddle soap (apparently bad for leather, need to find suitable replacement), wash scooter, ULTA, lunch with Michelle (cancelled), call Joy S. (emailed), Doc Martens?, bruise wheel?, finish Deana’s painting, email Western Builders with invoice, fill out early ballot, chiropractic appointment (rescheduled), finish exterior paint repair, talk to Ida about someone else heading up the community garden…I think that’s it. Maybe.
coolidge
This morning, David and I got up early and met Joe and Cindy for a scooter ride to Coolidge. Well, David drove his car with Cindy in the passenger seat. Not everyone enjoys the ride. It was a busy trip down through the Queen Creek area–a lot of construction. It’s so weird to think people live in giant homes so far east of everything. I couldn’t believe there was so much out there. How do people commute so far each day?
We ate breakfast at a little dive called Tad’s. Mostly farmers, local business people, and cowboys inside. Coolidge is a town I could imagine Napolean Dynamite growing up in.
The drive back was nice too. We went through Sacaton then through Chandler. I did think we were going to eat some pavement with the crazy crosswinds we fought down and back, but we made it safely.
Whew.
first squash
I am so thrilled that the weather is finally cooling down. Not only is it easier to ride my scooter in cooler weather, but plants actually grow. Something about dropping below one hundred degrees triggers happier plants. My grapevine looks bad; it’s the time of year that the bugs eat it, but everything else looks great. I have some corn that might produce something, and my native american squash seeds grew into a beautiful vine that produced what I think is an acorn squash (see photo). The vine is doing pretty well on the lawn. I guess grass is good for something. I’ve planted my seeds for lettuce, kale, carrots, bok choy, chives, and more. We’ll see what grows-I’m not really one for labeling or designating.

David and I spent some time today with my good friend Trista and her baby.

it’s open
Well, the market finally opened. I think everything’s been going well. I am proud of the work that I’ve put into it. The retail area looks great; hopefully, the rest of my products will be in soon. I have photos on the wall across from the community board. Mine are the three on the left and the center one. In the second bathroom stall, about half of the photos are mine too.
It’s also been really cool getting to know the people that work there. I was also able to get two of my friends jobs at the espresso bar. And the food…mmm…
