Weather in your garden # 102

79 but 69%H, still too hot in the sun, as always.

I believe it, Marilyn.

75° now. We were able to leave the windows open upstairs in spite of the higher temps. Humidity was down although i don't have measurements.

I can kneel on my own but have to get over to the equipment to get up.

Anything at all helps me get up but when I'm squeezed between a fence, a huge shrub and a tree I almost panic trying to get up.

High was 94°

Move the shrubs & tree. Fence can stay--I suppose it is for the antlered darlings.

The tree is one of many 50 year old pines. Might be easier to hire the skinny little 7 year old boy to weed that area for me in the future. The fence is a post and rail and is original to the property - 50 years old and still strong.

woo hoo.. unexpected rain!!!!

Raining now.

Oh yeah, since I mentioned my long handled weeding weapon, I also wear steel toed over-the-ankle boots in the garden. Considering how often I have to step on a shovel to remove a root, it protects toes from all directions.

78°, H 68%

61 mostly sunny, high of 82 with T-Storms this afternoon.

Good morning, everyone.

Currently 73 degrees and pleasant in WNY. Going up the the high 80's. I am so thankful our tiny cape style home has central a/c.

Have a blessed and marvelous Monday, friends. :)

Good idea, Rosemary. Sounds like serious footwear!

82, 59% H, sunny, barely a breeze. Only shade work today, if any.

Right, I don't know how people garden in flipflops. Don't wear those at all, but have seen it done.

pirl, it would be educational for the skinny 7 yr old.

Re: flip flops

Me neither. My daughter did it for years until the podiatrist had a very serious talk with her.

Re: Sean, the neighbor

He was in charge of watering newly planted grass seed last year and did a splendid job - never forgot a single day. Seems he loves learning and enjoys responsibility.

I can use him! It's a very humid 79 right now....T-storms predicted for this afternoon.....

i weed and trim in tevas - only where boots when i know a shovel is going in the ground or cutting the lawn.

Gross day. 86 with 66% H. Will be in the pool later, after working out.

Had 10 days over 90 in July. Had 5.5 inches of rain. 43 inches so far this year.

I wear soccer sandals or go barefoot while gardening, unless I'm doing some heavy duty shoveling then I need a sturdier shoe

96° right now 43% humidity

I'll start a new thread.

New.
