SUMMER, HANG ON A LITTLE LONGER PLEASE!

Are you having fun this summer?  Just like the rest of year, it has been flying by and will soon be heading toward fall.  Yes, it has been hot, and yes the bugs are biting when you are outside, but to be honest, it hasn't been as bad as some years to me.

I can say one thing that has been REALLY good, and that is the garden.  It is still producing and we have had lots of good veggies to eat.  This is the bounty he picked yesterday!


I finally got the prescription flea killer and put it on Cali.  She has been miserable and so have I!  I have bought every over the counter kind and nothing helped.  But by the time we applied this, I could tell immediately that she was not scratching or licking nearly as much, and can now nap in peace.

I am sure she is thinking, 'get that flash out of my face, so I can nap!'

Believe it or not, in 2 1/2 weeks, our schools will open......registering some, some getting their schedules, teachers getting their rooms ready, etc.  So, enjoy what is left of summer, because before too much longer, we will be complaining of how cold it is, and what to buy for Christmas!  lol

  1. Your veggie's look so good! I am enjoying our summer so much. We have had a much cooler and less humid summer than years past. I can't believe the kids there are going back to school in a couple of weeks! The kids here don't back until after Labor Day weekend so they have about 6 more weeks left. So happy that Cali was able to get some relief with the flea killer! She is so cute! Have a great day, Linda!

    1. Kris, we never went back until the day after Labor Day, but it seems these go back earlier and earlier. They do have several weeks off throughout the year though, that we never had..so guess that is why. Hope you a great day too my friend.

  2. Kids here go back after Labor Day..I know Alabama starts when yours do. Summer has flown by, hasn't it? We use a flea spray from the Tractor Supply, it is Citronela smell..white bottle..sorry, too lazy to walk downstairs to look..and it won't harm the animal either if they lick or whatever. Blessings

  3. Doesn't seem possible that school will start soon. Yours is about a week ahead of ours, I think, but "in the good old days" we didn't go back until after Labor Day. The veggies look wonderful, and I know you are enjoying them! We us Revolution on our cats, but may get the pill next time. Seems like it might be easier.

  4. Thats what I got too Terri...it works almost instantly. Didnt know there was a pill. It is a major problem putting it on Cali...she goes nuts. Do your cats act up too?

  5. I'm not a summer person and will be thankful when the heat, humidity is over for the season.
    So happy to hear Cali is doing better. Our pets are so dear to us, they are like family, I understand going out on a limb to afford medicine. They count on us to always provide relief.
    Hope y'all are feeling better today.
    Luv ~:)
