Catching Up

It's summer, which means the days are longer. If that's the case, how is it that I am so miserably behind on everything that I'm supposed to be doing? My house is rather dirty, my car needs cleaning, my flower beds need weeding--I'd go on, but this blog is supposed to be about being optimistic.  Ha ha--I'm even behind on my blogging!  I guess it's time to come out of my black hole and get to work...


The garden is doing so well this year. It seems like we're doing better at weeding this year than ever before! I have been wearing my "gauntlet" gloves when I weed, and they are just the ticket for avoiding contact with the very plants I'm trying to grow. (I get hives when I come in contact with most garden plants.) Thanks to the snow in May, we probably won't have many peaches, and that will mean less canning for me this year.  Oh, wo is me!  I'm sure I'll manage somehow.
