Felt warmer than it was.

The thermometer said it wasn’t that hot today, 23C (73,4F) but the dogs said otherwise. The cool wind should have helped one could think but it didn’t. I mostly hid in the shadows so to me the day has been pretty nice πŸ™‚

It was rather cool in the early morning though and it seems the mosquitoes like that too, so we had company the entire walks πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ Still I’ve now been bitten so much that I really don’t feel the itch any longer. Still just a few horse flies and their relatives and I know it’s useless to hope that it could stay that way but I can’t but hope πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ Besides walking with the dogs, making my lunch and watering the vegetables and potatoes I really haven’t done much today. I did take a nap as well though. Time has just flown away but I guess that’s what happens when one feel good πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

Mowing the lawn isn’t something one should do during a drought but I had to today. Only the part where the thorny roses and slow and the false spirea grew because those shoots were growing rapidly now. Isn’t it strange that when most vegetation struggles with no or very little water in the ground those things we don’t want just shrugges and keep on growing πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ I keep on pulling up their roots but there are so many and they are so twined that the majority of them stays in the ground. I have however no problems what so ever with the vicious roses on the other side of the garden, they behave nicely πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

There’s nothing I want to watch on tv so I could read a book or perhaps bake bread for the coming week but I have no energy to do either. I guess it’s the pollen that sort of slows down my brain but keep the will of not doing anything well alive πŸ™‚ :-)I could go outside and scare away all the magpies because they have now kicked out their younglings from the nest, always before they can fly, and now they protest loudly every time they think the young ones are in danger and it sounds like they always are πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ The Jackdaws have built a nest in my neighbors chimney so they’ll have to remove that before the fire in the stove season starts. They don’t have the hearts to do it now πŸ™‚
