#tracywearswool day 76 out of 100, a-wee-ma-wack, a-wee-ma-wack.
Yep, the backyard is getting a little bit mighty jungle-y. Haven’t seen too many big cats… but that’s okey-dokey. The giant racoons have probably been scaring them off.
But it is a nice time of year, grass starts growing like crazy, but is still pretty green. It is getting into the 60s here in Portland, and super lovely. Cherry blossoms everywhere.
And the garden project is coming along!
For those of you new to this blog …I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool& — Same dress. 100 days. (And yes, you can wash it!) Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with my lifestyle.
What’s in store today:
Meeting with the sprinkler man and coming up with a plan.
Working a bit more on Sweater #4… Playing with the dogs, and enjoying the great weather.
And… mowing and blowing the back yard, watering and getting ready for planting.
Maybe a little time for dancing later!
It’s a two-dress day. I got this brand new tank dress from Goodwill — made by DIP, which is the Fred Meyer brand name. Tags were still on it. Half off color of the week made it $3.50 100% cotton.
THe advantage of the two dress outfit, is that it is similar to wearing an apron. I can keep Woolamina nice and clean. And, it gives a great look. This tank would be too thin for me to wear alone, but it works pretty well tied up — so I can reach my pockets.
An this is a pretty lightweight outfit. SHould keep me cool during the next few weeks of the challenge — and then I will switch to the Sierra — after my 100 days!
y favorite fisherman sandals. Love them to death. Super comfortable, and go with about everything.
