First day of July. It's hot. I'm definitely not entering a stage of boredom any day soon. Although I've been doing a lot, it's been productive. We are in the middle of the worst heat wave I can ever remember. So humid, there is very little to no work being done in the gardens for the last few days. Heat index has been up to 106 degrees, and nights did not get any cooler than about 77 degrees. The heat wave will continue for the rest of the week. No rain yet. I froze water in small bottles to keep the chickens water cold, and froze treats for them. I canned a small batch of reduced sugar peach jam (before the heat wave). I have to admit, it's been very nice to can for two people now. Enjoyed the last of our asparagus harvest. The last two stalks were harvested June 29th. The longest asparagus season we've ever had. They look light colored, but taking them out of the fridge, they quickly...

responsible is part of the plan. I'm sorry you're sad, and I hope the pooch will be ok. Hope it's a short stint.
Unfortunately, all this is often the way of young people. I have to admit, I was that way myself some 55 years ago. "Live for today for tomorrow we may die." I pray she takes good care of the dog. I KNOW you did. Can you visit her now and then to see the dog and ensure that? I hope so.
We have another one ourselves today. A dog that we had placed with a Vet with severe PTSD seemed to work out well for them both for a while, but then the guy got a new "girlfriend" (don't ask me about HER) and the dog went by the wayside. Today Bro Tom stopped in for a visit. Noticed the dog was out in his run. Went out to visit the dog and saw that he had NO water and the dry food placed out there for him was moldy. So he went back into the house and raised cane with the guy. Went out and loaded Milo (the dog) up and brought him back here. Now he has a big new house, a new run and good food and water. His run is next to our main dog (Buddy) and they lay next to each other at the fence line. We couldn't put them together though because Buddy is very food aggressive, coming to us as an abused stray where obviously he was teased with food.
So that's that at this household. Everything else is going fine.
I was so elated when I realized I walked out to the dog runs, sat in a chair for a while to visit with the dogs (all I can really do since neither like me for some reason) and walked all the way back in WITHOUT A CANE!!! In fact, Bro Tom was walking behind me (in case I faltered) and I beat him back to the house.
YIPEE!!!
Praise and Thank God!!!
God bless.
