It's been a busy and hot week! I was going to go mow at my son's place on Saturday, but I got a call Friday that a dear friend's grandfather was dying. I've known her since she was 2 years old and her grandparents are long time members of the church I went to for many years in Livingston. I went to the hospital Saturday and visited the family. The funeral is today, visitation is at 9:00, service at 10:00. plus at least an hour drive time.
Sunday after church, I mowed at my son's place. It was after 3 PM when I got home, hot, tired, sweaty, hot, did I mention tired? I parked truck, left tractor on the trailer, took a shower, crawled in my recliner and passed out. Monday morning, up early and mowed patches of goat weed, bitterweed and Vasey's grass in the back field. I don't make neat strips of mowing, since I am targeting specific plants I don't want, I meander all over the place. Tuesday I hit the front field early, mowed awhile, came in and cleaned up. Took my sister in law to Lufkin, we had lunch, then to her doctor, then picked up grocery order and took her home. Got her in the house, took groceries in and got them put away, was after 5 when I got home.
Wednesday, yesterday, i didn't mow, it is still waiting on me. I went to Lufkin, filled up car, managed to burp the tank and gas spewed out on my blue jeans. So I had to run all my errands smelling like a gas pump. Had several stops to make, then home. I threw the blue jeans out the back door. Maybe this afternoon I'll toss them over the fence, squirt with Dawn and hose them down.
I need to set a bale of hay for the middle field, don't think I'll have time this morning. It's getting daylight, need to get outside!
