Wow, everything is so dried out. I'm in emergency mode trying to get everything watered this weekend. Grey kitty looks like he is starving, I don't think he is going to the neighbors' house to eat when we are gone. But that would be very un-catlike. He sure is skinny, though. I'm concerned.
Saturday I started working early in the Rose Garden. I pulled up spent black eyed Susan's and weeds while I watered. Watering was the main effort. It's hot and not easy to be outside.
The Culligan man stopped by and showed us how to run the system filtration and softener system.
I put some suet out for the birds.
The mower crapped out again and Bert went to town and bought a new one. $8,118. It was a smart thing to do, we are tired of putting out $500 every time we take it to get repaired. The last time it was $1000. We have had it since 2007 and we have used it hard!
I sprayed herbicide in the driveway. The weeds were taking over.
The hose stopped running about 2:00 so I couldn't water my roses anymore. Tomorrow morning when it's cooler I will stretch some new hose from the well to the Rose Garden, I assume the problem is that some connection has popped off on the hose that Bert strung through the woods. Aargh, it's always something.
Raked in the Star Garden for a bit.
Too hot to work past 2:00. Showered and napped.
