So what have I done with my day today? Donned long sleeves and khakis and gone out to pull weeds. What? You say. In JULY? You say. Well. Yes. All of the garden chores I usually do aggressively in June so that in July and August I can kind of kick back and enjoy the space never got done. It rained constantly. As a result, our brick patio looked like a small pasture and our beds were over run by every sort of annoying volunteer tree, ivy, and other weed you can imagine. As if I hadn't sweated enough with fever, now I'm sitting here with sweat drizzling down the back of my neck. Which in air conditioning feels FANTASTIC after a good dig in the yard.
Anyway, maybe I'm a masochist, but you can now open the hottub lid without showering leaves and dirt everywhere, and when we have company in the next 2 weeks, we can cook out. This feels incredibly poorly written, utterly content free. But I hadn't posted in a while. So now I have.
