Wife has been in the garden since day started, she's replenishing the
raised bed "dirt." Plus she's ticked off for some reason so me and the
dawg are hiding.


hope it is not heat stroke...

i used to acclimate to heat ok for the summers,
but not since living with AC and carrying extra 20lbs.

i was chipping away and losing a few here or there
this summer, i still might be, haven't checked lately.
i know i can now dig pretty well for a few hours and
work ok, but the heat eventually gets to be too much.

i'll be hiding inside for the next few days. 90+F
still in the forecast and i don't have enough left to
do outside other than heavy projects i don't want to
do yet. later in the week we'll be back to the 70s
and maybe 60s.

my knee needs a rest anyways.
