Cooler weather is back

What a lovely surprise to step outside this morning.  After Tuesday and Wedneday where the heat index climbed once again into the 100's I was ready for a cooler day.  If the meteorologist are correct we shouldn't see those nasty heat indices again for awhile. 

I am busy scheduling contractors today for estimates on reparing things damaged by last week's storms.   I called my friend Mark Bartlow with Ryan Lawn and Tree on Monday, he was out on Tuesday to give me a bid and the next thing I know he has a crew over here taking care of removing the huge oak branch that landed in our back-yard.  Very impressive service.  I guess that is why I don't use anyone else.  No need to.

I wish I could be outside playing.  I won't be able to garden for a least another 3 weeks.  UGH!!!!  Recovering from surgery is BORING!!!!!  I would love to be planting some pansies, mums and maybe some millet.  I'm ready to shake things up a bit with some fall colors and plants.  Who's with me?
