Tuesday Tidbits



We had another gorgeous sunrise this morning, but we'll get more heat and hopefully rain.  Most of the area got rain, but not us, so I'll need to water some things this morning.

I had good intentions on going to look at possibly adopting a 2 year dog, but talked myself out of it.  I think we need a puppy to train alongside the chickens, cats and the other puppy.

Looked around for a pool for the pup.  So far, they are sold out.  Imagine that.  It's so hot that I'm not surprised.

Reclaimed the kitchen table yesterday, and tried to put some order into the kitchen itself.  It was hot and the puppy was hating it, so he'll get a cool bathtub soak quite often this week.

My beads are starting to arrive, but my crochet thread hasn't.  It would be great if it came today.  I'll be indoors this entire week, aside from watering.

I'm on "puppy" duty today, as our youngest is interning at the salon, and has customers coming in today.  She will miss her baby for sure, so we'll see how this goes today.  I plan on doing inside cleaning, but possible flower bed weeding (unless it gets too hot).

I need to start a tincture today, but just have enough for making one.  I am trying to decide on a sage one or mullein.  We use both. 

Sort of a boring post today, but like I said the heat is sucking the life out of all of us.  Even the chickens were panting yesterday.

  2. Debby, for the most part he is a very good puppy, but it's like chasing a toddler with something in his mouth but his toys, ha ha!

  3. That is a beautiful sunrise. Puppies are cute and wild at heart. Good luck with that. It's quite hot here the heat index will be at 103 just like it has been for the past two days. Really, it's like walking out into a hot oven. The humidity is killer here too. I live in south-central Texas in Seguin (sah-geen like saying green without the r). That's about 35 miles east of San Antonio. Nice place but really hot and humid in the summer.

  4. Don't know where you live, but Family Dollar, Dollar General, Ace Hardware/Home Depot/Lowes (if you have a few bucks in your pocket), generally have pools. Wish we were closer, I'd give you ours we no longer need. Good luck and tell me about the heat...Georgia is drying up and sweltering!

  5. Leanna, our heat will continue to go up later this week. Not looking forward to it.

  8. Mother Em, sorry for the robot thing, but I was getting so much spam it was ridiculous.
