Good morning!!!!

[rswyan]

Currently a very pleasant 69F @ 14:00, Woman left the windows open before she headed out this morning ... nice breeze blowing through the house.

Supposedly heading up to a high of 85F ... but it's gonna have to make tracks if it's going to do that. Sun is trying to peek out.

It has rained here but no standing water that I can see. Local stations report 0.08" - 0.13" so far, possibility of an afternoon thunderstorm which might be severe.

So will most likely be a largely inside day today:

Get paperwork and filing caught up.

Get boxes in the dining room gathered up and stored, either out in the garage or down in the basement.

Draw water for fish.

Fish room maintenance/clean up, plus filter and tank maintenance.

Feed last two containers of white worms.

Might head around back with the Kubota and get another tank of RM18 mixed up for Sunday.

Fuel up pressure washer, check oil.

Clean pre filter on Cub air cleaner.

Never a shortage of things that need done ...

I see Harbor Freight is back to offering 20% off coupons. Might have a use for that, if I decide to go the cheap route.

No cicadas here either. Too bad ... was kind of looking forward to them.

Hope everyone has an enjoyable, productive, and safe day ...

Anyone tried watermelon, cantaloupe, etc. in a raised garden?

I grew melons in a raised bed for a few years, they end up out if the planter when they’re done but works fine.

I'm growing three pattipan squash plants in a raised garden and they are trying to take over, watermelons travel further.
If you are willing to keep training the vines back to where you want them, why not...

88 degrees but low humidity. I've had enough of the outdoors, worked in the garage organizing things and
now happy to sit in a/c. Just might find a cold beer to welcome in the weekend.

It reminds me I don’t know crap about grease. I thought grease was grease, I have no idea what type I have, other than it’s black.

I seem to shoot whatever is in the gun, regardless of color. Guess that puts me inthe grease is grease camp. Maybe I should do better.

I keep the red high pressure grease in my guns and use it for everything.

Stubby’s Texas cousin. She was huge about the size of a hoe. I found her this morning at the tool shed. Good thing this is an organic garden and all the insects are edible without side effects.

90 outside. Planted my potted plants in the garden, tomatoes, okra, peppers.
The mystery plant might have an identifiable fruit by tomorrow.
Tomorrow I’ll also plant some seeds.

Whipper is doing better every day. No more throwing-up, or diarrhea that looks like red wine. (Sorry about that if you are sipping red wine while reading this.)

am enjoying a Jimmy Dean breakfast vegan sandwich this morning. Plant based patty, egg whites with
spinach mixed in, not too much sugar or salt. With a little Carolina mustard vinegar sauce on it, pretty good.

I don't think there is anything plant based or vegan about Jimmy Dean. Don't they contain animal products?
They are possibly just meatless or vegetarian. Are they mis-labeling them?
