Sheared

Didn’t get much done today.  Worked a little on some web page stuff… last night figured out how and where to get my weather station posted with out putting it on the Hacked website (for now)… but have not gotten it figured out how to get my security pictures uploaded as the program is FTP or email… It think I can do the email setup but wonder about so many emails as it sends sets every 15 seconds , may have to reduce that way down?   More play and testing… maybe tomorrow set up one for email and see how it comes out.

I spent some time this morning soaping down my pepper plants… the aphids have taken over and almost ruined them … in just a few days they have almost taken off all the leaves from sucking them dry… I read soapy water was a good control for them so I soaped them and even rubbed the leaves, as much as I could… sure hope they come out of it as the Red Cajun Bell are really good peppers…

The main focus today was to get the dogs sheared… the white one probably didn’t need it so much as she was done a couple of months ago but the black one, I don’t think he had ever been groomed , but had been bathed as he sure liked the towel work when they had been out in the wet grass?  Anyway they had to be at the groomers by 10am… After dropping them off we hit Wal-Mart, the Donut shop, Lowes, the Farmers Market and ??? other stuff..  Of course we spent money at most of them… cheapest was Lowes… got 3 plant pots for $4.06.  Closeouts that I am using for starts of more Schefflera and other plants… Anyway… we got some Orange tailgate tables…

We will use it for camping stuff, nice fold up and not too big so won’t take a lot of room in the motor home.

Remember the black hairy dog with the huge feet… they weren’t so big after all… just a lot of hair…

Well maybe they are pretty big?  but the angle of the picture makes it bigger… ha!  and he had a white belly?  who would have known?

I also now have my reason for driving too fast… they might believe me?

And we had evening showers going through… but not here… we, again, were in the middle of them… they pasted on both sides, unless they happen to pop up later?

So it was another exciting day.. could have used a little rain, but oh well.
