The irritations of daily life.

On the dewy lawn this morning, between the cherry tree and the birdbath, was a big old dead possum

We had possum roadkill on Christian Street a couple weeks ago. I dialed up a neighbor to hold the trashbag open while I shoveled the critter into the bag. Fortunately, it was an official neighborhood cleanup day and sanitation was coming through that afternoon to pick up all offerings.

It's ten. Still here, and the flies are very interested.

The goldfinches are coming and going to their thistle sock, and they could care less.

I'm going downtown now to help with the summer reading program. I hope it's gone by noon. Ugh.

ewwwwwwww....not nice on a hot day.
I hope it's gone soon as I can just imagine the stink you'd come home to.
:P

12:30. Still there.

They're closed for lunch, but I will call back at precisely one.

I like the idea of the roadkill cemetery with the sad lady caretaker.

Hope they take it away soon!

[jackiejj]

Me, too.

The flies are happy.

[dabhug]

I hope it's removed soon!

[jackiejj]

Not yet! Ugh.

Hmmmm . . . I'll check back later and see if they came.

[jackiejj]

Still here at noon.

Well, they'll be sorry...shudder.
