I up woke three times in the night thanks to all the water I drank yesterday while working in the yard. But I evidently needed the water. Each time I awoke when I got back to bed, I went right back to sleep...thanks to all that work in the yard I guess. I got up at 6:00AM...late for me. It's almost 7:00AM now and I am still working on my oatmeal. I haven't turned on the weather yet or checked on the cats. They probably think I have forgotten them.
Only Blondie was out there this morning and I fed him. He hangs around and rests on the doormat out there and looks in the door at me.
I think we're due for several days of rain. And Dean is coming tomorrow. I don't know whether to let him know or not. Several times this Spring we have had rain forecast and it hasn't developed. I will check to see if that is still the forecast.
It looks like Sunday, Monday and Tuesday is forecast for rain. I hope that won't deter Dean.
I spent the last two hours digging leaves and clippings out from under the hedge, sweeping them up and putting them in the black trash yard bag. It looks a lot better but will look even better when some of the hedge grows back. I had John trim it drastically. I know it will grow back fine in time. I usually have to trim it twice a month. But I wanted to get the leaves and trimmings out from under it. I got half a bag of trimmings that had fallen through to under the hedge. I have half an idea to get out my blower and blow the rest out from under there but that would make a terrible mess. Now, I am sweaty though. What else is new?
I need to get my laundry started now. And I will also need to dust.
I got the laundry started. It's primarily towels and my PJs and underwear.
So more later...I will go read for awhile and read my latest book .
I went over to Coffeyville this morning and went to the bank. Then I bought a gift and after that I took highway 169 to state highway 10 and when I got to highway75 I went on to the celebration of Sunfest in Bartlesville. I enjoyed the trick dog show and I walked around until I got tired and then came on back home. I did stop at Dewey for a banana milkshake. I got home about 1:45PM and will read more now.
It's 4:20PM now and I did decide to go out and use my blower to blow all the dirt and leaves out from under the hedge. That was quite a mess but I got it swept up and put in the black yard bag, It looks a lot neater under there now but won't look real good until some of the leaves on the hedge grow back. I had John trim it back pretty severely. But it will grow back probably within a month.
It;s almost time for the news so I will get back to this later. I've had quite a day. My back hurts so I will probably have to take some Aleve tonight. I'm sure not as flexible as I used to be...of course, I'm not as young as I used to be either. :)
So more later...
I read on my son, Keith's, facebook that their air conditioning went out and they want an arm and a leg to replace it. The first appraisal was twice the cost of the second one. Luckily they canceled the first one and arranged for the second one.
It's 7:11PM now and I just had my bath. I had my banana before I had my bath. That's my usual supper. It's a great source of potassium.
I will read awhile and plan to go to bed at 9:00PM
