Of course - the farmers will charge us astronomically for this but why not. Our gas is well over 3.40 and our milk is more than that per gallon. I'm ready to tie a cow to my back porch!!!! I wish I could!

Looks like south GA and North FL have been getting good down pours sure hope they will put out the forest fires so we can at least sit out on our covered back porch and eat supper. And get at least a little work done after the sun goes down. Today is cooler 79* instead of the low to mid 90"s. The poor birds are really looking for water here to. Our gas is sky high as our milk. I told hubbie that we were going get us a couple of cows and tie them in the back yard, HA!!! Hubbie had to come off a diabetic drug it is brand new and cost a fortune 60$ for 30 tablets that is what he pays and the insurance pays the rest. He said he can't afford it now what with Medicare taking out $93.50 out of my SS and the price of everything rising. He is feeling really bad and back on an older drug that don't do the trick the new one did. No matter what he ate his sugar was between 93 & 115 now it may be higher as we ate breakfast a Shoney's buffet and yes he ate french toast with a lot of the regular syrup and not the diabetic I told him he is going to get lethargic and very sleepy he said he would not so rather than get in an argument I didn't say another word and If I did he takes up for the sweets he eats said that he don't think it was the sweets that are doing it. I hear it all of the time when his sugar rockets up. Asked him to take his sugar he said that it wasn't up at all that he just felt bad well I know why it happens every time he eats sweets and carbs. But they won't get the blame because he wanted to eat them and loves anything extremely sweet. Oh Well!!! If you can't win join them to keep peace in the family.
Went and got my veggies to plant this evening as our friend is coming over and plant them for me. Thank for John & Sue do not know what we would do without them.
WEll, well, it is raining here can't believe it, just hope it will last all day long and night to. Looks like a good soaker slow steady rain just hope it won't stop at all for about two days or more heck we will get out in the rain and plant. If the friends won't I surely will do it I do not mind getting soaked to the bone just as long as there isn't any lightening.
Got to run and dust and other cleaning as the friends will be here at 4 p.m.
