What Weird Weather

This morning it was overcast when I got up and it was suppose to rain off and on most of the day. After breakfast I washed the dishes and then got ready to meet with the guys. We were not having breakfast this morning only meeting together at 0930.

On the way to Larry's house I stopped by the post office to mail my Mother's Mother Day card and then stopped off at Kmart to pick up some Scott's lawn fertilizer as I was suppose to put it on the lawn this last Monday.

There were a couple extra guys there today and we ran really long, in fact I asked one of the guys what time it was and it was 1220, so I said that I needed to take off as Kathleen and I were planning on going to the grocery store today. Kathleen was not dressed when I got home and so I changed my clothes and then went out and mowed the lawn. I thought that I could mow the lawn and then put the fertilizer on the lawn.

Well, I finished mowing and when I got the fertilizer bag out and read the instructions it said that for best results it should not rain for twenty-four hours and the temperature should be above sixty degrees. Well, since it was suppose to rain off and on for the next couple days and it was only in the fifties I decided that I would wait until next week when it is suppose to be in the eighties.

Then I went inside, cleaned up and made myself some lunch. Kathleen finally got dressed and wanted to go shopping around 1500 but by then I was feeling really tired. Part of it was my eyes were really bothering me for allergies and I could hardly keep them open.

I took some more allergy medication and that helped but I was still tired, not worn out but more just plain old tired. Kathleen got busy and made some brownies and never did make it shopping. At first she was going to go to Fred Meyer and pick up her prescriptions, but she was even too tired to do that.

Finally for dinner she heated up the rice and black beans, some finger potatoes and heated up a salmon patty for me. It never did rain today so if it had been over sixty degrees I could have put the fertilizer down.
