Overcast & cooler this AM -- only 71 out there & probably won't hit 80. That's the good part. Scattered rain, of course. Seems a lot of us have this lingering moisture. I'm certain we'll be complaining of "no rain" in hot Aug/Sept around here. I would be ok with it all if the weather would JUST let me get my planting finished! Really, I would!

For now, I'm planning to work 1/2 a day, then see if I was "scattered' on. If not -- or if light -- I may still get to what seems my passion right now, a garden. I want some wheat straw for mulch. Alas, with weather many farmers haven't been able to harvest. It's expensive at TSC, chopped & compressed. May still get one bag for the immediate needs.


This CV19 stuff has a LOT of gardeners -- many new ones -- keeping a lot of prices up on a lot of things. By now we usually have some discounts going. Not seeing it. Plus some items are sold out.

Everyone have a great day.

I'm ok so far, thanks
Vet arrives at 9:30. Our wonderful neighbors brought their backhoe over yesterday and dug the hole. They have had to bury a few of their own and so know what to expect. Paul will finish things up and doesn't want me to be there, so Karlene will hang out with me and offer moral support. I'm hoping to hold it together and not be a blubbering mess throughout until I'm alone.
Then I can fall apart.
I gave the horses a bath yesterday afternoon since it's finally warm enough, and I want Luke to be his most handsome self.

Run fast across the rainbow bridge, Luke.

We are absolutely Thrilled here today.......it is spose to get to 96 with a realfeel around 110....our 1st "heat advisory" of the year........isn't it simply Exciting??....I sure hope everybody has an equally Wonderful day!!....well, not literally of course....it will be 73 inside as long as the AC continues to run...

I know it will be difficult for awhile @thistlebloom , but it is better to think of the Good memories and the relief of him no longer suffering....I truly hope ya can embrace a better day really soon...

Got home late afternoon and boy, was I "scattered" on! Drove home in it from 20 miles out. Had stopped raining here but, sure had been around.

Went out & picked a dozen squash...fried some with onion for dinner. First picking. Hurray!

Before I left for work I put new hatch & hen in a pen so all would be safe. Cute little fluffy butts. Will take pics later. Only 4 of 6 eggs hatched but, that's better than the hen with one chick.

Coffee is on.
Harvested our first cucumber yesterday. It didn't last long.

Thanks for the coffee! We will be working in the sheep barn today, tilling up the hard pack, shoveling it onto the mule and spreading it in a pasture. We did a bit of this on Wednesday and using the tiller is the best way to go. We will clean the whole barn, lime it, then put down pine shavings and start over. It may take a week or so, due to weather or other things we have to do, but we'll get it done. Y'all have a great day!

Don't even have plants big enough to flower yet!
