McStabby

The Re-Potting Thereof

Despite having said all this week that she wanted one day this weekend not going, KT woke up proclaiming she wanted to go out! Pretty incredible turn of events. Without much effort we developed a plan to re-pot McStabby. That is a plan, with some substances behind it, as opposed to all the times we've said that and followed up with "it'd be nice, but I can't be fucked". "We" being more so me, admittedly. But there was something about this morning that made it more "okay, let's do it", despite all the other stuff we had to do today.

So we got our shit together and went out to Ace Hardware to pick up some gardening gloves. The beauty of which is that they had free hot dogs, popcorn, soda as well as a free bucket with anything put in it being 20% off. Which I guess KT had noticed during the week, so there was double purpose to everything we did today and she didn't miss out on the free crap. [smile] The 20% off turned into somewhat of a buying spree, and getting a free lunch was pretty sweet.

Photobox ImageBack home we got to the task of re-potting. Kinda amazing, since we brought McStabby a year ago last week, and we're supposed to re-pot him ASAP. No small part of the delay on that was how much of a pain in the ass (or thorn in or side as the case might be) the task seemed. So it was pretty amazing how easy, and reasonably quick it was to actually do. The key to our success was probably the cowhide gloves we brought at Ace.

Definitely rewarding to finally have that done.
