TWO - count them - TWO days in a row without rain! I am on the mower today and tomorrow. Ya-Hoo! I cannot believe how fast the grass is growing, even with our high temps. I just mowed on Friday!

Got my new sun hat with bug netting and it’s really nice. Loving that bug dope from Off. Can’t believe the improvements they’ve made over the years. I am pretty much caught up on weeding, but there are two spots I’m going to nuke. They are not near any food plants and we have no water up here by the house. Safety First!

Hope everyone is drying out a bit. More rain here on Friday - I think I’ll go walk at the Hospital, which is a really nice thing they allow for the ‘Silver Sneakers’ crowd. :)

We had rain (thunderstorms) yesterday & today ... probably for the rest of the week, too.

Company coming Saturday so I need to mow at least the front yard Friday - I might be dodging raindrops. Mom trimmed around all the trees in the front yard last night so that majorly reduces my trimming.

Making 1st casserole out of the 500 casserole cookbook: Pasta & Chicken Alfredo. She has an easy alfredo sauce which is pretty tasty- looking forward to dinner!

Love that bug hat you have!

Used to be your storms would pick up more moisture over the lake and dump it on us. Not this summer. Not like it used to be. There have only been a few days I have not had to water.
