Good morning!!!!

71F with bright sunshine @ 10:45, calling for a high of 82F for the day.

LWS reports yesterday's high temp was 84.7F, we were outside most of the day so managed to avoid turning on the AC in the house. Woman complained last night though after She got home from neighbor lady friend's about it being warm in the house (78F) ... I thought it felt fine ... :giggle:

She is out weeding in the garden, trying to take advantage of the shade before it goes away.

Was too windy again to do any glyphosate spraying yesterday. Today should be much better and that is the first item on the list for today. Foliage on the east side of the new forsythia bed that I initially sprayed has started to turn yellow ... (y)

Woman worked on weeding the garden yesterday and spraying plants and shrubs with the peppermint solution.

I did manage to get all of the front lawn mowed.

After that I hooked up the Water Buffalo and grabbed the new box of Schultz 20-20-20 water soluble fertilizer and watered/fertilized both peach trees, both burning bushes, the ornamental Japanese cherry, the red maple, and the ginkgo tree before running out of water.

Peach tree has some leaf curl, will need to get it sprayed earlier to knock that out. It has started to form fruits however.

Took Buffalo around back and dropped it for a refill after that, might get to that later today.

Ten Day is showing a better than 50% chance of rain every day for the next 6 days. Figured I'd take advantage of the nice weather to get things done outside while I can, and leave the inside stuff until later when it's wet outside.

Woman's birthday is coming up so I got her a present ordered off Amazon ... after checking to make sure it was acceptable ... ;)

Dogwoods and hawthorns now in bloom, redbud is fading.

Burning daylight so need to get moving.

Hope everyone is having a decent Thursday ... (y)

65°F and .01 inches rain.

Pretty good day yesterday. Got some maintenance done on neighbor’s trailer. Ready should I get fortunate that my tractor is ready.

Started another round of mowing. Hope to continue that today. H&F cancelled as John has problematic tooth requiring attention.

Feeling pretty good this morning, expecting a great day

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Good (Friday) morning. Overnight Low of 3.7C and it's presently 16.1C, partly cloudy and fairly calm.

Yesterday's hay shift went well, although there were a couple of 'pucker moments' due to the very uneven ground leading up to spearing the rounds. She requested a second round be put out, which was fine by me as it'll save me a future trip (depending on the health of her husband recovering from pace-maker surgery). The whole task, including travel time, took about 50 minutes.

There's not much on for today with the exception of a late Urologist appointment at our local 'base' hospital. Strange time of 1730, but he's the Doctor.

Actually, he refers to himself as a "Mister" as it's the medical designation/honorific for a surgeon. At least that's the way it is around here.

That's about it, take care all.

Morning all!
Currently 47 going to a sunny 60 degrees.
A little bit of discomfort swallowing this morning after yesterday's endoscopy.
Preliminary results were good. Testing is now pushed off to a three year cycle. Barring any bad results from biopsies testing. Need to stay on my diet and keep going on the meds. Good news for sure!

Nothing completed yesterday as can be expected. Neighbors are coming home this weekend so I need to run up to their house and make sure things are in order. Will put the battery charger on the vehicle so it will be ready.
Might putter in the shop after that. Have two projects going that need final steps completed.

If things can dry out some more I will try to get some yard work done this weekend. Forecast has rain though so will have to see. Wife will be going to a baby shower on Sunday so hopefully it will be nice.

Enough rambling I guess. Time for another coffee!
Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!
