Oh, the plans I make when I dream, I was gonna get so much done today. No hospitals, no obligations, nothing but plans of important treasured things I WANTED to do.
I had topped off the water garden, removed a bag of mortar from the car to work on my rocks...bag's been there six months...and while there, I had to bring a blanket and a sweater in to wash, also in the trunk. I have a sand and rock deck below my porch and have decided it needed mortar. Note the big rock that is the center, compliments of always-do-it-big hubby. Siding-tracking always throws me off, see something that needs doing, do it, and go back to first job later.
Sadly watched the last chance of rain leave the valley
while longing just to forget it all
and walk out that entry...
to explore.
Marcy shows with fresh corn husks...sidetracked, again.
Yes, I am in this equine huddle,
loving every corn fed moment of it.
The morning was not as productive as I wanted. I gathered some limbs, used the cement, fed/loved the horses, refreshed their water and did not have a dry rag on me.
Oh, the freedom felt so good.

Things don't always go to plan but it seems you made the most of your time and didn't get to down in the dumps about things. Here our temps are half yours although it has been nice and sunny.
Sounds like what you did was good enough!
Happy Monday to you. :)

Sometimes it's okay to do what's needed and the rest can always wait until tomorrow. :)
I wish I could send you some of this south Louisiana weather Gail - it's rained all day and the temp is about 80. :) blessings, marlene
With so much beauty all around you, how can you not take the time to enjoy it? Life is too short!
I hear you! I finally gave up waiting for even a cool hour in the evening and just worked through the heat, knowing it would all be washed away with a nice shower. Sometime you fight back, sometimes you bow out. It's all good.
I am sorry the rain passed you by. That is HOT. I am thinking you need sometime away from everything. B
Whew! That's hot. I'm guessing with the humidity, the heat index was more like 120F. gah!
Sounds like you did the right thing is not doing too much. That kind of heat makes you sick and can be dangerous, too.
Love seeing you spending time with your horses. They obviously love you. And the corn husks. hehe :)

Freedom is wonderful.
I know what you mean about the rain. The sky has been teasing us with rumblings and darkness and maybe 2 drops of rain.
Your heat is phenomenal.I don't know how you last in it. Or how you can even function in it. It would have us Dutch people beat. You really did alright for how hot it was. I would have just gone to a creek in the woods and not have moved at all.
I'm surprised you were able to do any rock work at all in this heat! We also saw our last chance for rain evaporate before our eyes. Lots of thunder, black skies, wind blowing. I closed the windows in the non-air conditioned rooms, took a nap, and when I woke up, the sun was blazing again and everything was still bone dry. Hubby said it blew by. Grass is brown and crunchy.
You always seem to make the best of things.
