I got a lot done today. I finished putting together my shelves and filled them up. I was missing some hardware so had to look out in the yard where I was painting and found it. I watered all the plants inside and out. I spread the Sprectricide around half of the yard and will have to buy more for the other half. It kills ticks. I watered that down and sprayed the round-up along the walk and driveway. It seems I have to do that every week.
I called my sister-in-law, Sylvia to see if she wanted to go to the cemetery with me. I took off up Interstate 95 and arrived there in 45 minutes. My brother, Rick, came home and we all went to the cemetery. I put silk flowers on Ted’s and my parent’s graves. It was cool there under the tree.
Sylvia made dinner for us and then I hopped back on Interstate 95 and was home in 45 minutes. This is our last cool day. Tomorrow it will be going back into the 90’s for the rest of the week. One day it’s supposed to go near 100. My backyard was like a sponge for most of the year and now is hard as a rock. I didn’t think it would ever dry out. It rained all last summer and fall. It snowed all winter with a total of 5 feet and then rained all spring. The front yards are brown but the back is still green. It won’t be for long in this heat. It’s the same in Vineland. I haven’t watered the grass but will have to water the bushes and hedges when I go back. Vineland has water restrictions. You can only use the outdoor water on even or odd days according to your house number. I will only get in one or two days of watering before I come back here.
News from the Vorlon Wife.
Not looking forward to the next several days and high 90's even 100 degree heat. What ever did we do before A/C?
