Good morning! No rain expected and temps are going to be a bit hotter today, but only upper 80s. It's my weekend. Jungle here I come.

We are still in the 90’s with humidity. There’s so much I want to do in the pens but I just can’t handle the heat.
I bought 3 big bags of peat moss to mix in with my crappy dirt. I can’t even grow clover and dandelions.
My husband has been in China about 4 weeks and I’m so ready for him to come home. He was home for about a week and had to return.

I hear ya on the heat! I go out about 8a and take care of the animals, then Misty and I come back inside and vegetate. The grass is too long, I have a lot of branches to cut up and put away. . . but it's just too damned hot to work outside much past 9 or 10a.

I always liked my time alone, when hubby was gone, so I kinda' don't understand that part of your post. He was messy, pushy, opinionated, bossy. . . I could go on. I wasn't meant to live with another person. I do so enjoy my alone time.

I am ready for Jeff, too. Of course, even less gets done when he is home.

Coming in to town, I had to stop and let a doe and her fawn cross the road in front of me.

I saved your number so maybe @Yvonne G can edit it out if your half working computer wont allow it.

I can meet you halfway if you want. That won't be a problem now. Just figure it out and let me know. I do have pads for your animals, I offered the Golden barrel cactus for you to have more to care for and decoration...:D

Have my new riding mower working. The old one is still in the shop waiting for a part to come in. Mowed last night til I ran out of gas. The mower ran out of gas, not me. Slow going when the grass US as tall as the mower. :rolleyes:

Also got the chain back on my saw, so I can injure a tree or two big time today.:p
