Monday, July 6

6:03 a.m. - I think I have a little time with Tucker today, but I also want to work on some weeds and other little yard projects.  That means I need to get some exercising in early this morning in order to get that out of the way.  I'll be exercising later when I help my mom with loading some hay in her barn.  I also hope to take a look at the Dodge to see if I can figure out the vent situation with the dashboard.  I'm also expecting some folks who want to use the pool to cool off.  

10:40 a.m. - It's been a good start to the day.  I did some yard work, which included some much needed roundup spraying of weeds around the grounds.  I'm now on "Tucker watch", but I've accomplished the feet of getting him to nap, which was easier than I thought.  He didn't want to be held, and he was ticked that there wasn't mommy or grandma to wine at, so I just took him into the bed, laid down with him, and in a matter of minutes he was out!  That's my kind of guy!  I also did a little garden work this morning, and it is looking great except for one pepper plant that is struggling.  I do need to purchase some Sevin dust because I've got broccoli worms that are having a delightful time chewing up the leaves.  I will probably go up to the hardware store and do that when Amber gets back from her appointment.
