Yesterday -- and Today

la_samtyrWell, I tried to get some yard work done yesterday and all that happened was that I got chewed to bits by mosquitoes. Ugh! I have bites all over; sprays seem to have no effect on them at all. So I spent most of the night trying to keep the itch down so I could sleep. :/
Since the weather cooled, I have the a/c turned off. (Yes, it's been that cool.) Also, I have discovered a serious drawback to the window a/c's (living room, kitchen and a window fan in the bedroom) I have -- the cats have only one window to sun in -- in other words, a screened window that they can lie in the sill and get 'fresh air' -- and of course there are many bitter arguments over who gets the window. *le sigh* I am sure if I had central air and opened every window in the house, they would still argue over the same window. ::head desk:: (And yes, I could open more windows but I would have to close them up again, especially when it rains at night.)
Yes, it rained last night. Again. *sighs* The lawn is going nuts growing and I need to seriously mow it before the city does and nails me with another huge bill. I wish I had a horse or something to eat this much lawn down. Because seriously, it is high enough to cut and bale. Small square bales to be sure, but still.
Oh and someone finally came around to plow up a bit of ground for the garden. It will be a very late garden w/o too much I can plant but the point is, the ground has been broken so that next year will be easier.
