Weeds ~ Raccoons

Hubby and I spent the 4th working.  He mowed (which is still not done), and I weeded.  I got a dent into it anyway.  It was a high of 92°F and a higher heat index - hot, hot, and hot.  Rain is in the forecast today again too.  

Hubby was the first to try out my homemade Aloe-Plantain cubes for sunburn relief too.  He said it felt great and this morning he's not complaining.

We've started on restocking our split wood again.  There was a dent made into that job too on the 4th.  We retired early, and put the last air conditioner in finally.  Whew!

As far as handiwork goes, I managed to finish up a pot holder set.  I had to stick with small projects on my humid porch.  We've even put a fan out there now.

Random Tidbits

I had every intention of weeding Monday morning, but Youngest actually got out of bed early and we had some porch time.   Truth be told, I was not running on all cylinders and the "gas tank" was on drizzle.

The more we sipped coffee and chatted, the more I talked myself right out of weeding.  The weather said rain at 11am, so I detoured my work possibilities.

Then later, the rain was delayed, and I was already showered and cleaned up.  The good news is the red raspberries are coming in nicely this year.  Yum.  I took a quick look-see at the garden and the zucchini is on, and boy it looks like we'll have a boat load this summer.
