Sideways..?

There's not much going on around our house on these slow after holiday days....  Loyce seems to have come down with the cough that the grandkids had over this last week, so that is slowing us even further...

Of course the lawn doesn't know that it is a holiday, and was up to our ankles...  So yesterday was lawn mowing day...  I went out about 8:30 and tackled that project to get ahead of the day's heat...

I would have liked to get the bike washed up too, but the sunshine on our driveway was bearing down, which turns my shirt and brow into a mushy sweat...  Yuk....

We are to get even warmer again this weekend, and Loyce talked some about going back to the lake... But that was before the kids colds landed on her...

So we move on, perhaps sideways though...

  1. I hope Loyce can get over that cough. I hate it when they linger for a while - so afraid of pneumonia.

  2. I guess I'm behind a few days. Definitely fall conditions around here the last few days. Had to put on my long trousers! Gah! It was in the "single digits" here this morning. I guess that's what? in the forties F? Not sure. Not warm though.
    On a brighter note, it's been dry enough that the grass has stopped growing, or at least slowed down. I don't water it, even if we only get rain every few weeks. It's strong enough to withstand a bit of drought. It's GRASS, fer heaven's sake. Not going to waste water (that we pay for) on grass.
    Maybe some cottage days will help Loyce feel better? Just a theory.

  3. Going sideways is o.k. sometimes, you just don't want to end up going backwards.
