A yellow volunteer tulip is growing right in the middle of my backyard. It was such a surprise. In the front yard are more plants like it but without a bloom. I wonder if they are tulips, too. Wednesday, I will investigate. They do not have regular tulip leaves, but there is no doubt the flower is a tulip. One day, a black tulip volunteered here.
Two more pair of shoes are going to get the Shoe Goo treatment. One is a pair of sandals that the whole side has been ripped from the sole. This will be a true test. It may not look very good. If not, they will be what I wear everyday in the yard.
The other pair is my favorite shoe ever. When I heard this model of Clark's, a Mary Jane, was being discontinued, I bought all I could find here, and ordered them from a store below Montgomery. I think I bought eight pair. I put them all up and got out a new pair about every two years. The sole came apart from the uppers everywhere but the heel area in one white pair.
I had another pair of the same style, black, that I could wear. However, I could only find one of those shoes. In a stroke of luck, the right shoe of the white pair was still intact. AND, the left black shoe was not lost. In the yard and around the house, I wore a perfectly good pair of mismatched shoes. If I can get the sole matched with the upper, I will have two more good pairs of shoes for the yard/ rain/mud/chicken yard.
We went to lunch at a church today: ham; sweet potato baked in foil; mixed vegetables--corn, peas, green beans; buttered slice of bread; two cookies; unsweetened tea. Lunch was good; company and conversation was spectacular. We sat and talked with another couple and new friend.
Around 18 months ago, I took 13 pieces of Tupperware that had split, some lids, some bowls, and the woman now no longer sells Tupperware. So, I think I lost all the pieces. She says she told me to come get it. I don't remember that.
We drove 15 miles round trip to get 100% gasoline for my lawnmower.
I had a 3D mammogram later. It really hurt me. That is the first time for pain. More later. I am tired!
Exbf took his go plate home for his dinner. I gave him my sweet potato and mixed vegetables. I just now ate my ham and bread. Apple and leaf lettuce salad are next for me.
To save buying a new pair of shoes, would you wear one black shoe and one white shoe in the yard and chicken yard? Remember, I knew I could mend the white shoe I was wearing, and I knew I would find the other black shoe. And, they are the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn.

App for Car Diagnostics; Tulip Questions
I found this article about an app for a smart phone that does the same diagnostic tests a dealer or mechanic does. Does anyone or their brother have an opinion on this APP?
State Farm has a tent about 50x50 ft in Lowe's parking lot./ Business must be brisk.
Sunday, I awoke feeling great, almost like I was eighteen until I moved. This has been a beautiful day, full of bumble bees and wisteriaand sunshine with temps in 70s..
Last Tuesday, before the hail I brought in the two tulips I knew would be battered. I was able to enjoy their beauty until today when the petals fell off. I appears they have a structure like rose hips underneath where the petals were. It is a huge bulge and I wonder what will happen with that part. The stems are in water, still.
And, I am sneezing my head off.
Nevertheless, I am getting more done than I have the whole week. And, that is not much.
How about the efficacy of the app?
