August 12th

Well…damn, it’s August 12 and it’s only 51 degrees out there…can’t remember it being that cold in August before and I am glad I closed this place up before bed last night…and I think I may have helped the sleep deficit I’ve been experiencing with not getting out of bed until 6:46 this morning and only getting up once….I have pain in my right side this morning and I wonder how I may have hurt it….cripes now I’m hurting myself sleeping? That’s what you younger folks have to look forward to…sounds like fun, huh? Had an okay day yesterday but didn’t get much done but making potato salad and going out to the beach and I didn’t have sunscreen on so had to use aloe last night with the burn I got on my face and scalp…it’s not that bad but just tight and I don’t want it to peel….I did use the bug spray I bought to keep the biting flies away at the beach yesterday…those damn little things were making it uncomfortable but the Off deep woods seems like it works but keeping it in the cooler might not be a good idea…damn, that goes on cold but it has a nice smell….it looks like I’m not going to get enough tomatoes to make a batch of salsa this year or to spread them around the neighborhood and I can’t figure that out…have never had so few of them since I’ve had a garden and I’m not sure if it’s something I did or if it’s just chance….will have to figure that out over the winter….not much to do today…getting a late start since it is already after 7:30 but I am not motivated to get going right now…maybe by 8 but who knows? I do have to cook some chicken thighs later today and I am going to make tacos over the weekend to use some of the tomatoes I do have….and I am looking forward to making pickles as soon as the cukes are ready but that will be another week I think….more later….
