This major heat wave we are suffering through is NOT doing good things around here! Even with nightly watering... the garden is looking wilty, and I am really praying we dont loose anything. We lost all but 2 bunnies... and the remaining 2 have been moved into our dining room. I am worried we wont have baby bunnies for Easter next year. The dogs have been pretty miserable too. They dont want to be inside... Dont want to be outside. I did brush ALL 5 of my fur babies out today... but that was a MAJOR task!! I gave Sprocket an adorable new doo! I started to pull is fur up and out of his face... and tying it up with a tiny hair band. He looks soooo cute!!! I cant wait to start grooming school... and get more "ideas" for his crazy fur! AND... there may be a new fur baby in the mix... shhhh! LOL
I will be finishing up and canning my 2nd batch of Sweet Gherkin pickles tomorrow. I dont know if our cucumber vines are going to make it through this heat wave... so I dont know if I will be making any other kids of pickles.
I managed to get my first 2 PERFECT tomatoes today!! I cant wait to get started on Salsa and Spag Sauce!!
And I think I got enough garden beans today to freeze enough for another meal... to be made during the winter months!
I did move on to starting my jerky making. I have my first batch marinating in the fridge over night tonite... and they will be put in the dehydrator tomorrow morning.
Other things on tomorrow's list... More corn to freeze.
I spent all last week cleaning out our other house... for Josh to be able to move it. I LOVE having him closer!! The previous tenants left the house one hell of a mess! TONS of damages! But, I did get the horrible smell out... and I am pretty thankful for that!! We got Josh all in and settled and he seems to be a happy camper! I am so glad we are able to provide Josh with a place... away from us, on his own... but close!
I truly do have an amazing husband and my kids have an amazing father!
I pray that the heat wave breaks!
