I don't believe it rained last night and if it doesn't rain today, I will do some raking in the back yard. Also I will do the trimming if it doesn't rain today. It's still dark at 5:55AM so I can't tell much about it is doing out there except I don't hear any rain....at least not yet. I slept well last night and only woke up once to go to the bathroom. I read until 10:00PM and then went on to bed and right to sleep.
I was up this morning at 5:00AM, as usual.
I never did dust either Thursday or Friday so I'd better work that in today sometime.
In a little while I will turn on the TV and watch "the weather on the 8's" to see what the prognosis is going to be for today. I will also see if the cats are out there wanting breakfast. I will wait until it gets light though.
It is supposed to rain later today so I will rake the back yard now.
O.K. It's 7:45AM and I have just finished raking the back yard and putting the leaves in the black yard bag, I don't know how long that will last but it looks good right now. The front wasn't as bad because the wind was from the south. I just picked up a few leaves. The mowing had bagged them yesterday evening.
Both cats came for breakfast and for once Blondie ate too. They finished off all the cat food and I washed their dish and it is on the drying mat now. Blondie insists on getting right under my feet when I walk and I have to scoot him away so I won't trip over him. Scruff doesn't do that. She usually just scampers back of the hedge to the food bowls.
I got the trimming finished just before the battery went down on the trimmer. It's on the charger now. The yard looks pretty good for just a yard. I have no lawn....mostly crabgrass. But I like to keep it neat anyhow. The heat has really bleached it out.
I got the hedge trimmed and it is 77 degrees out there and yet very humid! That's all the outdoors work I am going to do today. My face is very sweaty.
More even later... It's almost 9:00AM
I have read most of the morning and just as I was ready to finish the book, the Kindle needed charging. It's nearly 1:00PM now and I am going to go to Eggbert's and have lunch.
I went to Eggbert's and had my usual lunch..chicken salad, fruit and a muffin with iced sweet tea. I brought the tea home and drank it. Then I called Nancy about 2:20PM to see if she wanted company. She did so I went over and visited her until 4:15PM or so. I developed a cramp in my right leg and couldn't seem to walk it off so I came home to take some of that Hyland's for leg cramps. By then, I had walked it off. I decided to try to read my Kindle again even though it was not yet fully charged. It's 4:50PM now. Later this evening I will have my supper banana.
Nancy wants to go to lunch Monday or Tuesday and I will be ready to do that again by then.
More later...
Then at 7:00PM I intend to take my bath and sometime after that, between 9:00PM and 10:00PM I will go to bed.

Your grass looks dead like mine. I am tired of mowing and really don’t care.
You have so much energy. We don’t have a lawn to mow in Hawaii. I was disappointed when we first saw the house, but it’s kinda nice now not to worry about it. I like seeing your photo so we can see what it really looks like.
