More rain, more (attempted) walks, more farmers market.

It was actually not raining this morning, so we headed to the farmers market. I bought a small aloe plant because I wanted one, and Liz was guilted into buying strawberries, greens, and radishes from different vendors. Back at the house we played with Luke a whole lot and didn’t do much else. No cooking as we have plenty of leftovers. We went back to the greenway this afternoon and walked just briefly before the rain started back. So a rather disappointing day on the exercise front. Also disappointing was last night’s episode of Hawaii Five-0, which I watched during Luke’s morning nap.

Cooling down, but getting wet.

It was nice and fresh this morning when we went for a walk. It started sprinkling at the end, but was no bother. Walking felt great. Then it rained for most of the day. I went to Kroger and had a bunch of “office work” to do inside the house. I also made dinner, and it was honestly a bit disappointing. Probably the first one that I won’t make again. This evening we went on another walk since the rain had ceased.

Luke had a pretty good day. Lots of crawling around and biting things.

Even hotter.

The weather website said that it was 88 degrees today, but they weren’t factoring in the massive fire that I had going out back. So it was pretty intense out and I was feeling it. It was still a productive day though. In addition to the fire, I also got all the windows scraped, grass seed spread and covered with straw, went grocery shopping, and cooked dinner (sweet potato lentils). Tomorrow begins fours straight days of rain so it was nice to get all of that done. And we also started the day with a greenway walk again.

Getting things done on a pretty hot day.

We started the day off with a walk along the greenway. It was a great way to begin the morning. After that I worked on getting gravel in front of the porch steps and of course moved a lot of dirt. I also moved my military trailers to an out of the way location, but first swapped out the huge Hummer tires on one for something more manageable. After preparing dinner in the slow cooker (chickpea dish) I started preparing the turn-off from the driveway to the garage. I set out nine railroad ties and probably need to go get a couple more. Tomorrow is supposed to be even hotter, as well as the last dry day before an extended period of rain. Hopefully I can get a lot done.
