A scorching day ahead....it's a good time to wash the rugs/mats and runners.

Another scorcher here today. It looks like another wet t-shirt day here.

I don't know how you do it Tina....I honestly would be miserable dealing with heat as you do.

You all stay cool.
It is rainy here so cooler, but by the end of the week we will also have scorching weather.
I just keep telling myself that the heat is not ice, and it is not snow.

Good morning ! Drinking hot tea here....
It sun is just beginning to peek out..but the ground is soaking wet. I should probably be out picking a few blackberries. My berries are on the end of their time. I intend to try to add a few more plants over time.

I would do that (buy BlackBerry plants at Wal-Mart). But these are sweeter than mine were at the farm, and I do not really want a different strain. Rod wants me to get plants from seed, I want to put the tips of vines into dirt and cut a part off when the planted tip has rooted. We will see who wins. We are at the end of a slight thunderstorm here.

I'd do the transplant as you said Junie...it is an easier way. I've seen that done around here with gooseberries. I'm getting caught up on my own 'honey-do' list. If the weather would co operate I might get it done by the end of July....just in time to start another for Fall.

You have a honey-do list ?? I thought that was just got guys....so sorry to hear that.
Going to the local chain grocery this morning. Rod fixed it so the kids are coming over early tomorrow instead of tomorrow night. I love how no one asked me, then it is all my fault and he did not tell her to bring the kids over early.....mind you she told me Tuesday that he invited the kids over early to use the sprinkler and play on the play yard.

If he did the inviting....then he can do the babysitting Junie, I find that making a list keeps me in check with things that need to be done/repaired. My next big project is putting a fresh repair of the old repair to the bathtub(got that ). I just keep repairing two cracks that DD caused by dropping shampoo bottles many years ago. I found a new repair putty for boats and gas tanks...time to strip it down to the acrylic/fibreglass and do a whole new coating. The old repair was made with stuff for repairing car bumpers.

Yes, good luck with the repairs, Sunny. I need to do something to my tub.....the previous owners put in a new tub - shower combo, as the glue from the stickers were still there....but then it looks like whomever instal!ed things, just threw their power tools into the tub. No holes but all kinds of nicks...some deep. Glad you are getting a break in the weather, Tina. Sadly ours is just hearing up to be near 100*F.

I second what Tina said.
We are getting such hot weather...I hope August is cooler in trade. The garden loves it though.
I need to go through GG's b-day list today, I need to get to town next week....and get her b-day gifts while I pay the monthly bills. Kids ask for the weirdest things these days.

Good morning and thanks ladies. I appreciate that.
Yes they do ask for strange things. My niece who will be 13 pin ( I think) has asked for yarn and Japanese candy...smh....but oh well, at least we do not have to wonder what to buy...
Sunny. I am thinking we are all stuck with hotter weather as a norm...
