I haven’t been very bloggy lately…..my apologies to anyone who cares. lol…..
Today is a beautiful day. A little hot, but not too bad. It’s really the first day in a couple of months that I have been able to get outside and do any yardwork. My yard is starting to perk up again – it’s has been hell trying to keep everything alive this miserable summer. I don’t even know how many days we have had over the 100 degree mark – but it’s alot. My water bill is killing me!
I am extending my sidewalk today. I laid a pavestone sidewalk about two or three years ago, but only one row wide. It occurred to me quite some time ago that I needed to extend it, because the perennials in the flowerbed to the west of it (next to the garage) reach out towards the sun and grow over the sidewalk. So, I have to wade through Russian Sage every time I want to go to the garage! Not a very pleasant journey, or a very pleasant smell to have on oneself! This is quite a chore. I’m surprised I feel well enough to do this project today, but I do. I had a massage yesterday. I wonder if that has anything to do with my agility today. Just two days ago I woke up so sore all over I could hardly move, sit down, or anything. Plus I had a nasty headache, had to go to work, and had to go to school that evening and take a bloody test. I hope I did well on that one. It was easier than I expected. It was a Botany lab test. The lecture test two days earlier was a bitch. Can’t wait to see what I got on that one. I thought this class would be easy since I am a gardener and know quite a bit about plants. That is why I chose Plant Biology over Human Biology. Jeez. Hopefully I’m doing better than I think. I’m glad I formed a study group for that class, that’s all I can say. Science was never my forte. It was actually my lowest score on the ACT, I do believe.
Okay, back to my project. I am on a small break to catch the OU-Air Force score and back outside. Sooners are on top at halftime, 10-3! BOOMER SOONER! I’m not really a sports fan, but my friends know I like OU football and last year was kind of getting into the OKC Thunder games during the playoffs. That’s some good stuff, man!
