Yeah, long break but I did get to it.

So much for plans.  I needed, or took anyway, more of a rest than intended.  So when I got back out I had slim choices.  I could finish planting and doing more weeding, but all at once, or I needed to bring the plants back in.  Another 45 minutes of weeding and then I went ahead and finished planting.  I still have some of the green growies in with me, either not big enough, or extra.  It should be good for a minor later planting or replanting though.  I should say, my crops aren't overcome by weeds, I am merely hitting areas, mostly open areas.  The weeds there were coming in thick.  I had been just hitting the weeds near the crop plants.  I don't, technically, need to do weeding where I am doing it.  Or, didn't think so.  I decided to plant in that area, though, so it actually worked out.  Mostly I thought it would limit my watering area, where I planted.  And besides, I had just spent two to three hours clearing the area!  Might as well use it.  If they cross pollinate, oh well.  Live and learn.  Oh, the water timer runs on 2 AA, not a good sign I think.  It means it will eat batteries I think.  If so, back it goes.  Urhm, I best find the receipt.

I need to get to town tomorrow.  But I am hoping to get out and do even more weeding Thursday.  I got the bigger areas and the bigger weeds, it will just be cleanup, and probably a bit of aerating around the good plants, for better moisture absorption.  I don't know that I will do it in the heat again, but I might.  I seem to have done pretty well in it, if my eyes feel blistered.  No, not the skin, the eyes themselves.  I have been in that much sunlight in... decades.  And, no, I didn't just sit and look at the sun.  I avoid visual contact with it at all costs.  We have a problem, the sun and I, one I can't win.  Next time sunglasses.
