Seriously. Look what's next - wild black raspberries. I decided to skip making mulberry jam. The birds are too quick for me, and the pie pans in the tree are not working in my favor.
I admit it. I have garden burn-out syndrome this year. And it has just begun. I think it's the 95° heat index, and the humidity.
Mom sent me an e-mail sharing her "Snapdragon" days. It starts out with a nice photo of snapdragons in a garden. Then it gets funny, with a turtle looking haggard. I laughed my bum off. It said, "Part of me has snapped, and part of me is draggin." Ha ha ha ha!
We're allowed to feel that way. Or should I be saying "shame on me?"
It's going to be another "scorcher" today. I think I'll stay indoors and torture myself by paying bills versus the heat outside.
I have been dragging for months and the heat is making it worse if that is possible. Take care my dear.
ReplyDeleteThe raspberries look great! The birds got my mulberrys too! I don't mind the heat its the humidity that gets me.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't had a lot of hot weather yet. But I know it's coming. Which means earlier days so I can get out there and weed before it gets to hot.
ReplyDeleteI actually did skip the garden this year but I still feel guilty about it occasionally. I do have some tomato plants in 5-gallon buckets, a few herbs and one volunteer tomato plant so that makes me feel a little bit better! LOL!!
