Augie. No hail here on Monday. Drizzle, dark and some good showers this week. Had the front lawn mowed so that was good. Have had some sort of Upper Respiratory Infection most of the last 2 weeks. Wednesday I went to the Dentists and had a Temporary Crown put in...good, since no root canal, And that afternoon went to the doctor/N.P. and got a prescription for Prednisone so maybe I can clear this up.

Sunny today and looked out at the garden. The Turnips seem pretty happy and we will not have another freeze until next Wednesday! I do not think I will cover them this time. They are larger and I am on a hill top.

Good luck with your upper respiratory infection. Do you have any environmental allergies? I ask because I am allergic to leaf mold and tree mold. Always have sinus problems this time of year. The last couple of weeks, I’ve had a drippy nose, itchy inside my ears, and some minor congestion. Allergy meds took care of it, thankfully.

I always say, you’d think with my outdoor allergies that I would want to be inside as much as possible, but I LOVE being outdoors and getting my hands dirty. I’m fortunate that I can control them enough with OTC allergy meds. Of course, that’s after 2 years of weekly shots to help me get there some 30+ years ago.
