Was starting to doze off in the recliner when Hubby said something about it being Sunday - my work schedule has been so wonky lately that I'm not sure if I'm coming or going, let alone what day of the week it is. It took a pretty good effort, but I managed to pry myself up and out of my chair to get the thread started for the week
Tomorrow, I plan to get up early and get the garden tilled - finally have a day off that it's dry enough to do so. I don't plan on lollygagging around getting it done as it's supposed to be up in the 90's again. I'll have some weeding to do with a hoe as well, plus I need to get a little more mulch put down under the 'maters and get them tied up to the t-posts - reckon I'd better dig through the rag bag and find me a nice soft t-shirt to make the ties; that's something I can get done tonight so that they are ready to go tomorrow. I'm also going to have Hubby mow a couple patches in the back garden so that I can start prepping it for a late corn crop; will probably toss some pumpkin seeds in there as well.
I bought some dark sweet cherries on sale so will ask Hubby to pit those tomorrow while I'm tilling; then he can run 'em through the food chopper and we'll make up a batch or two of sweet cherry jam - I like a spoonful in my breakfast yogurt and it's also tasty on ice cream.
If I have any energy left, I might give the neighbor lady a holler to see if she wants to do something exercise-y. The nearby indoor public pool where we go to exercise is supposed to open back up tomorrow; don't know if I'll try to head up there with her or not - maybe if we go around lunch time there will be less people there. I'll have to get ahold of her tomorrow morning and see what she wants to do. I need to renew my membership anyway; and the IGA in that town has a couple of sales I wouldn't mind taking advantage of for stock up purposes. That's only about 15 miles from the orchard; might check their FB page and see if they have any peaches left; peach jam sounds good too, and if I've got Hubby home to do the stirring, it sounds even better lol!
Dang, my eyes keep trying to close while I'm sitting here trying to type; reckon I'd better get this posted and either head back to the recliner or give up the fight and crawl into bed!
Take care out there, folks; stay safe!!
