HOT AGAIN

It's HOT again.... darn it anyway. I thought we were finished with it. Seems like the heat is a lot like last winters cold and we can't get rid of either.... I hope we are finished with extreme weather now and we will have closer to normal for a few years. One thing I can say is the flowers etc sure did well ~ of coarse I had to do a bit of watering to help it along. I was out early this morning watering and then I did a bit of weeding close to the porch and it looks better now... want to hear a good one? Joke was on me and Leo ----- we saw what at first I thought was a weed and then Leo said it was a tomato plant as it had a little yellow flower on that looked like it could be and the leaves were simular.... It wasn't a tomato plant... darn. We thought the birds had planted a seed or something and we were telling everyone all we will have to do is reach out when we are sitting on the porch and pick a nice ripe tomato.... It turned out to be a nice picker weed... the pickers were starting to get really nice and big finally... It was fun to watch anyway. I have another plant in front that everyone said was a weed but to me it looked to pretty to be a weed but I don't remember planting it so anyway I decided to let it grow. Its a pretty weed and a nice soft blue green color leaf. Guess what was on it today... a pretty cornflower blue daisey like flower so weed or not its staying :>) Isn't gardening fun? Even if its too hot to stay out very long its still fun. I have some real tomatoes ready for picking for supper... some of the sweet 100's. I love those little ones for just eating like popcorn or to put in my salads. 
Hope you are having fun too even if it's too hot to do very much.    Sandra
