It’s only 930ish? It’s what I get for getting up at first light. On the move front the new place got a good rain so better grass and easier to drive t posts. I’m reading up on canine prey drive and food issues. I misjudged Sophie’s maturity. She’s so big it’s easy for me to forget she’s in the “terrible twos”. Her rescuer sent me more pics. She truly was a walking skeleton. But presently she is doing a snooze after a little work early. She got butted a couple of times and responded properly. :celebrate

It's late day....but, up and had coffee this nice, cool morning. Mid 60s went to upper 89 by noon! No breeze, so hot! Outside until lunch, then in and to town for a few grocery items. Wow. I needed vinegar for cheese, was $1 and now $2. ☹️. Walking down coffee aisle I noticed "cute little bags" of ground coffee....7 oz. Yeah, smaller amounts. Tea is like double what used to be normal. Ya know, bad part is it'll never drop back down!!

I got the few things I needed and leaving, path was through produce. $1.49 yellow squash, $1.68 green beans, per pound. Sure glad mine are doing well!!! Used to hear the "eat or buy meds" comments....it's way worse now! 😩. I am blessed that I can buy and grow...I take no meds. It's a true delimma for many. I hope those of us who have garden excess can find a person who can appreciate what we can share. 😔

Other than some tomatoes I didn’t garden this year. Orchard has a few blueberries and apples. About a dozen peaches and will be 3 or 4 quarts of blackberries. It’s a young orchard but I’ll miss it.

Iced coffee and Spinosad spray for bag worms on cypress trees. The BT didn’t seem to work. Move date second week of August so time to put things in boxes. Beautiful weather this am and dog bath day too. Sophie is not impressed with her new ball.

Moving in August? Awesome!
Years ago I was evicted in August (week early) on the hottest day (in years). Given 6 hours to move. My Coworkers found out and showed up with hands and vehicles. We worked unloading freight for a major retailer. Those people showed up after weeks of exhausting hot unloads and they hardly knew me. There. Are. No.Words. For my Gratitude. Did it to Queen’s
We Will Rock You. Also idiot buyer kept getting under foot with threats of law enforcement. She wanted the house Now. Got moved. Found out later the local stores heard about it and wouldn’t sell her feed. I got skips on my bills which later I paid. August move. Nah. I’m ready.

That was a fantastic gift right from peoples heart.

Looks like I’ll be hiring a fencing crew to get up enough fence to hold the sheep and dogs over the winter. Now the ground is baked hard as concrete, plus all that I have to do, I don’t see my T-post pounding ability happening. Does not make me happy. That’s money I could use elsewhere.

Still no word on closing.

It was at that. I’m still friends with some of them. I suspect I’ll be building fence and doing a lot of fine tuning on gaps.

@Baymule shame about delays!! It's a problem, for sure. At least the netting you have will allow for grass eating...until. :hugs.

Hot here today due to humidity as much as temps. Still upper 80s isn't chilly.😁. I'm home for 2 weeks!!! I'll get to see what retirement would be like.:old:lol::lol:. I haven't had this in years...YEARS!! 😲. Need to go finish yard mowing from yesterday.
