On my first cup of coffee, then out side to do chores, feed Tatli, take her pasture walking and maybe some day Buford will decide he likes her. I need to sheep proof Max's pen so I can let sheep out in the yard to graze it. No point in mowing it and wasting all that grass.
I'm back inside, already soaked due to humidity.
Got Coop Deux raked out, dirty litter on the elderberry patch (to be)
Doesn't look like much, does it?
Caleb had a street walk, and I introduced him to "side" command (walking on my right). Maybe we'll take a ride later.

High of mid 40's today. Going to see if we can buy our 10th parcel and so the great shuffle of properties begin. Robbing Peter to pay Paul. Not that we have to, it's just best to keep things in the market working for you.

Learned it from the wife. She took the accounting degree online, I was in the background as the classes were happening listening and learning too. Hence how this business has came about and I brought in 6 figures in the second year from when I started this business.Crafty as a fox...

56-77 today and going up as the week goes on. Got the relish done yesterday all the jars sealed. I'll take one to DDIL tomorrow when I go sit with Kit. She gave me the zucchini it was round like a pumpkin (some special kind) and it made over 12 cups finely chopped - perfect for the recipe. Yeah - plant a zucchini and you'll feed the town for sure.
Just a regular day here.
Have a good one everybody.

I grew a pumpkin like squash last year, and it was resistant to squash borers. I'm trying to recall the name, sounded Italian. I gave up on growing summer squash, as I'm lucky if I get ONE squash before the plant dies.

Hubbs is that way, his mom had to be hospitalized for it once. He is also allergic to cashews which I’ve been told is in the p.i. family. There’s a lot by one of my gates and around where the dogs can get into it. Pet or groom the dog and bingo. The sheep eat the heck out of it. I suspect as a wormer. On the doggo front nobody has hit the hot wire. And nobody has gotten out. I swear I saw Caddo delicately test the wire with a whisker. They can probably hear it humming too. Varmints. Have a great day everyone.I know 2 people that respond so terribly to poison ivy, that they need steroid pills.
This one guy in grad school got it SO BAD!!
He started wearing long sleeve button down shirts with everything buttoned down! Even top collar button. In the Texas heat. And finally one of the grad students asked him what was wrong... he told us that he had had a small spot, not sure where, but it just kept spreading all over him. We made him show us.... he didn't fully strip down... but it was all over his arms and up his neck! It was super red, flaky and oozing blisters. All of us told him "DUDE! THAT IS BAD! GET DRUGS!!"
Anyway, I am not sure what he had tried. I know he said he was spending lots of time soaking in an oatmeal bath.
With all that said, yours doesn't sound that bad. But watch it and if it keeps growing, or starts looking like your skin wants to curl up and die... you might need a round of steroids. When it is that bad pills are way more effective than creams.
