.....was done in a few short days. Good thing they turned a beautiful brown before I melted. It was stupid hot babies, and in spite of HRG's renowned love of all things sunny and warm, it was too much. Truly it was. The almost 20 degree drop in temperature is a bit much though. One extreme to another. You'd think MN would cool us off gradually. Nope. Her hot flash is over. For now. Another is never far behind. Trust me on this.
If I have to be unemployed, then I'm happy it's now. It's given me time to catch up with the yard. I've decided to let the lawn die. There is so capital punishment in Canada. We're just so civilized that we allow foliage, not people, to die. We'll condemn it to a purgatory spent as straw without so much as a by your leave. You see, if the lawn dies, the weeds die along with it. That's my theory. Next month, after the Harvest Moon, it will be re-seeded, the fall rains will feed it, the winter will hibernate it and the spring will bring forth a lush, rolling bed of green. One so soft people will beg to walk across it in their bare feet.
Yeah, that's how it'll be.
It's been really hot, I should've worn a hat.
