It's hot and hotter. The plants are dying, the garden is not doing very good. The tomatoes are growing though and right now have a ton to freeze. Mom's neighbor told her to just wash and core them, then put in a bag and freeze! You can then take out the little frozen balls and run under water, the skins will come off. Add them to soup or sauces. This should work out great since I don't bottle anymore. (Can't do canning on the ceramic stove top).
The Asters and Zinnias are growing like weeds ! The Four-o-Clocks are doing good, they smell great. We dug up the grass and daisies around the light post out front, now we have dirt!
Darwin had Dutson's deliver me some more rocks to put around it. (The guy won't put rocks in Darwin's 'new' truck!!) LOL!
So, that is about all that is happening around here. It's a good time to sew and do lettering. I have some watches I want to do with the beads.....sometime.
I watch the kids go to school across the back road....if their Moms knew they stopped to throw rocks into the canal, they would have a hyssie fit. Things seem a little more relaxed around the neighborhood with the kids gone during the day. It's quiet again, kids are missed. Olivia doesn't get lost as often when Mikala is in school! She is 4 and wants to do what her big sister does. (Sound familiar?) We "mature" ladies sit at our computers and send hugs and hearts and pillows and such to each other and I mustn't forget the many e-mails!
Life is good !! Cannot complain !! Well, except we could use some rain !!
