It has been HOT here in the Southeast. I dream of October. Hell, I’d take September, right now. It is supposed to rain, today, and cool off a bit in the next week, but this is pretty miserable. Last night, T and I went out with some friends for dinner and standing outside, afterward, was like standing under a 95 degree wet blanket. I cannot stand it.
Between the heat, sweat, and the wine, I had some crazy dreams last night. They were not happy ones, but mainly frustrating ones. At the end, my garden had been ravaged by animals and nothing was left. I had this horrible sinking feeling at the end of the dream and woke up with it. One can see where my brain is most of the time - thinking about if I need to pick the cuces and tomatoes and if the corn is going to withstand the storm that is about to come through. Yes. That is my world, right now, and I’m okay with it. Speaking of…
The garden has been doing pretty well, lately. I need to employ crop rotation next year to see if the plants will produce like they did the first year. I’ve just been lazy about it.
Today, I’m going to do some freezing, canning, cleaning, and reading. I need to accomplish some tasks around here if it hurts me. I’ve been so easily distracted, lately, and I finally need to focus and get something done. So, with that, I’m off to clear my head, eat breakfast, and be proactive.
