Peacenik after reading the Daily thread from yesterday I understand more details of your run this weekend. I am sorry about the important women in your life lost to cancer - especially your Mother of course. What a wonderful thing you are doing in support of your friend and in memory of these women to celebrate life.
Sounds like everyone is staying busy this week! Boy I can relate to that.
We have had such an unseasonably cool summer but this weekend is supposed to be up in the high 90's so I'm bracing! We do not have central air in our house - just several window type A/C units that are built into the walls. The original units are from the 60's. Built to last obviously, but energy pigs! We have had 3 newer more energy efficient units sitting in the garage for about 3 years while we argued about whether they were powerful enough and which one to put where, etc. I finally pitched a fit a couple of weeks ago just to get the project off of square one! So yesterday our handyman friend (________'s Rent-A-Hubby :H) came over and put changed out two of the units. So hopefully I can keep the house cool today without the electric meter spinning off into outer space.
I made some raisins in the dehydrator! No sugar added or anything - just grapes. Man are they good. I need to find a source for seedless grapes locally and make some more of those! I'm going to make more dill pickles today and can a few tomatoes. The cuke crop has been disappointing. I suspect the cool weather has something to do with it. I need to take pictures of the fence pumpkins as they are getting really orange now! I'm very grateful Evil Bunny has moved on. Life is still good.
Have a great AF day everyone!
