August 18, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. The forecast is for mostly to partly cloudy - but there's sunlight pouring in my window for now. It will "only" go to upper 80s today. I had to step out earlier to move sprinklers a bit, and it was wonderful! Of course, there is the usual chance for afternoon showers or storms.
Yesterday: It was a busy and amazing day. In the morning, the bug man came, and was able to locate more "ant trails" (because some have already been eliminated). So we might actually have them all gone now. I hope! LOL! Then in the afternoon, not only did my gardening friend show up - but a lady I recently met came over with her husband and sister. Between them, they cut all the gray (except the steep ditch), and ran the weedeater (which hadn't been done all year - because I don't have one! LOL!) around everything that needed it. My friend weeded in the garden, and got another basket full of tomatoes and peppers. That's amazing considering the heat and bugs have killed some of the plants. Then, in the evening, one of the "bonus" grands was brought over for the weekend. All in all, it was an extraordinary day! :)
Today: I think it will be a much quieter day! LOL! DGS9 is happily eating cereal and watching cartoons. I'll be "attending" an on line seminar later this morning. In the afternoon I'll go to DS's house in town to check on his dog (he had to go to an out of town funeral for the weekend). After that, DGS and I may make some cake pops. I'm fairly sure there's nothing more exciting going on! :)
