This morning is muggy but not hot. We had some rain overnight, but not enough to get rid of of the humidity. I'm debating turning of the AC, but I think I'll leave it as I do my chores. Sweating is over rated anyway.
We are finally starting to see some color in the tomatoes! Heavy with fruit, the tomato plants seemed to have been in an indefinite holding pattern. It's been warm enough, the sun has been out, they just seem to be taking their sweet time ripening. But last night I spied a few lil buggers starting to tinge orange. YAY!
The peppers are growing like weeds.
The cukes have flowers like you read about. heh. I love that phrase, even if it doesn't make any sense.
My poor pumpkins. Still no female flowers. All male. My brain keeps wanting to make inappropriate same sex jokes, but I've refrained...so far.
The raspberries are almost done. Did I say that last week? I really mean it this week.
I finally filled the bird seed feeders, and put up a new nyjer sock for the finches. They love me now. We seem to have an over abundance of birds in our yard this year - with or without the feeders. I think it might be because we haven't had to mow the lawn for over a month (not enough rain for the grass to grow). We have a lot of clover and thistle, and I think the birds are eating it up. We also have a LOT of worms, and the robins are feasting.
My flower garden in the front yard is pathetically choked with weeds. I really REALLY need to get off my dufus and take care of that.
*slurps coffee*
Maybe later. :)
