    like a rented mule...

    … i am simply beat.
    4 days of crawling into bed exhausted.

    and truth be told - likely  one of the fastest, most exhilating weeks of my year.

    pfft.
    on the other hand, it could be just the heat… :-0

    tomorrow to the farm.
    photos to follow.

    4 days weekend

    .. of sun and chickadees and relaxing.
    I have missed their giggles and their growing. It was a long, hot july.

    7:30PM

    reb....

    … ok - missing you.
    know where you are - know where you’ve been. want you to know that the sun is shining somewhere - even if it’s cloudy in your own backyard.

    say something.
    anything.

    5:46PM

    not 9 to 5

    when outside of those hours, i have to admit that i am addicted to colourful, comfy clothes.

    somedays the wizard suggests that it looks like a clown has thrown up on me.

    5:42PM

    i struggle with aphyds...

    … no, not in the office… in my morning glories in the rooftop oasis.  i grew those little devils in water and papertowels, migrated them to their own pots, helped them climb every possible railing on the oasis, and grinned when they let forth their first bloom.

    now they are sick.

    insecticidial soap seems to be competing with the aphyds in sucking the life out of my glories. i am at a loss. they got another bath tonight, cool water, a good rub on each leaf, cleaning out the critters, with fingers crossed. i swear, if there’s another yellow leaf tomorrow, i’m going to jump.

    8:27AM

    gone fishing...

    … and boatin, and readin, and relaxin and sunnin…. be back sunday with proof.  Don’t expect any leftovers.

    7:05AM

    rain...

    last night - today - for the past 12 hours or so.  I am thrilled. The roof oasis is less so - flower blossom shrapnel everywhere.

    The wiz returns tonight after excessive hockey shenanigans. I hope he’s thriving in this heat.

    10:45PM

    .. to want this….

    dog problem....

    the small dog’s nose is a mess of broken blisters for some strange reason.  they flowered over the night - and on friday - we woke to a very unattractive nasal protrubence… she isn’t thrilled.  neither are we.  and she continues to display her ‘non-thrilled’ feelings by rubbing what remains of her nose all over the place - leaving a trail of blood and gore. 
    my trick today - on what should be a ‘kick  back and do all the things i never think of doing when the wiz is around’ sort of day, i am calling verterinary clinics in desperation - trying to find a suitable - walking - distance medical solution for the beastie.

    i told her she wasn’t that homely with all the gruesome ooze, and she hid behind a chair.
    she didn’t believe me.
