I’m sitting in the a/c under my ceiling fan glugging a bottle of water as I type this. BOY! The weather people are either nuts or lied. They SAID it would be cooler today – high only in the 80s and less humid. I’m heading up for a shower as soon as I finish this. If a weather person were here, I would bite him or her in the leg.
I decided, because of the weather report, I would grit my teeth and get a tarp on each of the six raised bed square foot planters today. Once you get started out there, you feel obligated to finish.
I didn’t find any sign of ants in the planters (thank you, EIGHT), but I DID have a bunch of them in the trash can where I stored the tarps and the bungie cords. I don’t THINK I got bitten/stung, but I hosed down the trash can and put it upside down on the ground to try to get rids of the ants and other bugs. (I may have spoken too soon. I just slapped an ANT crawling down my arm!)
It’s good that I finished this today. I can put it behind me, anticipating my next garden and dreaming of what I will plant.
