8/9/19
Time spent with family is worth every second.

Calm, fog and 64 degrees.  1.36 inches of needed rain yesterday. Partly cloudy today with a west breeze, a high of 80 and a low of 55.  Scattered thunderstorms tomorrow with a west breeze, a high of 71 and a low of 53.  The hay fields and the sunflower maze are hoping some of those thunderstorms stall over them.  Partly cloudy Sunday with a brisk west breeze, a high of 74 and a low of 57.  Partly cloudy Monday with a brisk WSW breeze, a high of 80 and a low of 56.  Partly cloudy Tuesday with a NW breeze, a high of 76 and a low of 53.  Partly cloudy the next ten days with highs in the low seventies the first four days, the high seventies the other six.  Lows in the mid to upper fifties.
    Darel had a good day yesterday.  The afternoon went by quickly with the Raymonds visiting.  He was feeling good enough to call and have a long phone visit with Henry in Conn.  Still wanted to go to the Creamery in the evening.
   I spent the rainy morning redoing my order wood, making sure 2019 was all fileed in ti corrected and setting it up for 2020..  Only two 2020 orders in it now but more will be put in every week or so now.  Tamarra worked on display cards until the printer quit.  I called Hewlett Packard, this time they couldn't fix it.  After a few hours they are sending me a new one, mine is still under warrenty.  This one has worked great when it works but I've had to call HP and have them reconnect it to the computer it three times.
    Late afternoon was very pleasant.  i put on my boots and picked squash and cucumbers.  Half the patch, I'll pick the other half this morning.  Doug drove through the yard late.  he'd been getting braces for his peach tree branches.  Said if Mike din't get chance to get some for mine he'd get some when he got his done. Lots of peaches that will grow fast with this rain.   Doug is doing some major fencing here on the farm.  A new lane for the cows through the woods with gates into each pasture.  The old lane will lead from the parking lot to the Sunflower Maze.
     The sun is trying to burn through the fog.  The finches and nut hatches want me to fill the feeders.  From being concerned that there were so few frogs I went to chasing one around the kitchen at two.  How it got in i don't know but I'm sure it was happy to put back outside.
      Enjoy your day, Sally
