Today was a pretty good day, as far as getting things done. I managed laundry, watering the garden, and I’d gotten a little fence that matches the three sides I already have, so this morning I actually installed the fourth side, thus keeping the dackels out of my garden once and for all.
I bought bubble gum the other day and stuck it in the stone wall. I’d read that this will get rid of chipmunk and squirrels, and so far, they have not been eating my garden. I will let you know how that goes.
Mom is in Yale Hospital, and they have her on antibiotics, as she seems to have pneumonia too. They’re managing her pain, and she is very weak. I asked her if she wanted me to come down now and she said she would rather wait until her birthday next week. I told her if she changes her mind to let me know.
Hubby has been busy with his trees thinning fruit. We have an abundant crop this year, and we have learned by bitter experiences that it is better to thin, than to have a fruit tree (particularly peaches) torn asunder!
Saturday was also a picture perfect day. Sunny, warm, but not too hot. A gentle breeze and dry air. If it was like this all summer, I would be a happy girl!
This whole weekend was so beautiful weather wise, yet I felt paralyzed. Very tired and not wanting to do much. Yesterday we were going to go on an adventure and Ralphy said he didn’t want to go anywhere, and Dave was tired, so we stayed home. At the end of the day, Ralphy said: “Next time I come over, let’s go on an adventure, it’s more fun.” LOL out of the mouths of babes.
