Good morning, friends!
Hope you're all enjoying cool temps and peaceful days.
As usual, I'm whining about not having enough rain. Temps are strangulatingly (that might not be a word...lol) Hot! 105F most of the week, with heat index of 115 to 120 (49C) in some places! Hope our A/C can continue to keep up with the demand for more cool air.
Anyway, our week has been filled with keeping our Sloane. She had some sort of infection (when a doctor doesn't know "exactly" what's going on, they treat symptoms. So... antibiotics to the rescue. It must have worked because the second day we had her...she was all smiles. Monday though...wow...no pleasing her but we made it through.
Now it's Friday again!
My ring finally came in! Larry picked it up since I was holding precious cargo. I love it. It only took almost 51 years...lol
Sloane started roaming all around the house...I'd say she started feeling better! lol, With me in hot pursuit.
The heat is horrible here! Larry took me to Home Depot yesterday (Sloane was back in daycare). I was able to buy one of the last Black Kow manure bags. People swear by it, so I'll give it a try. Sprinkle a generous amount on top of the soil (if plants are not looking so good) or, mix it into the soil when planting. I'm trying everything I know to do to save my plants but, Hades Inferno is speaking right now... :o(
My climbing rose looks pitiful...as well as the Jasmine.
I hope the Black Kow can help!
The tomato is just about gone...
I asked Larry if he could cut out a front porch silhouette for me. I'm getting a head-start on Halloween. All I have to do is show him a picture...and he can do it. Nice!
I also bought a box ($1.48) for Sloane to play in. A lot cheaper than a princess playhouse on Amazon!
Went out to visit my sister, Ruth Ann. She's doing great but wasn't prepared for pictures, but Tuff said he didn't mind! He's so sweet natured!
Okay then...I suppose I've wasted enough of your time this morning. Hope you all are safe and doing great!
Be positive and be kind...and make good choices.
Until next time...
