Hot. Tired. Achey –
And 8 tomatoes and a pepper (need more) and some other stuff are IN the garden. And heavily mulched with straw, and composted with well-rotted horse manure – And my neighbor, Greg, is coming over tomorrow to plow part of the garden…and to bring me some more horse maure – and I’ll have to resort to Round-Up for one bed of something nasty, but that won’t be too bad, and I can hit the poison ivy in the hedge row while I’m at it.

And tomorrow afternoon I’m supposed to meet a girlfriend for a drink and gab – something we don’t do nearly often enough, we women –

And I’ve worked most of this week and will again next week –

And my knees are still functioning and I’m tired but happy.

Ah, summer!
