Chores, and bottles in.

.

It took a while to finally get to the rabbits.  But, done.  They are in good shape, well fed, and with water.  Just checking, keeping them in food and water as needed.  I pulled the bottles.  I had thought to put bottles out again, but between their condition, the heat, and my condition, I decided against it.  

Ducks got a meal and some water as well.  Nothing fancy, just a topping off.

At first it seemed okay.  After hauling the feed bucket and waterers around in the heat, it grew worse.  Until I was bushed, and baked, upon reentry.  That's when I gave up on putting more bottles out.  It is 93 out there.  At midafternoon, that's not bad.  And the rabbits looked healthy.  So I just let that go.

A nap, I think.  Though, after the attempt at a nap the other day, I must realize I may not nap.  I may end up sleeping until tomorrow morning.  Not that that is a horrible thing.  Though, this  time, if I wake, I'll get down and open the house up.  While it doesn't help a lot, not opening the house is far worse.

I purchased a few small window fans, but they have almost no air movement to them.  At full speed, they are weaker than the fans you can connect to a smartphone.  Yes, for 8" or 9" fans, there is absolutely nothing to them.  They aren't battery, either, 120v.  Wow, what a poor design.  My weakest fan kicks more to me, ten feet away, than these kick out right next to them.  No, not window fans at all.  I'll have to look locally.

Still, the goal is a nap.  Then to get up, take a shower, maybe do a load of laundry (didn't get done last night because, duh, can't water the lawn AND do laundry).  Well, and getting dishes going again.  I did get some through, need more through.  And the drying counter for them is ready.  So all I have to do is push them through.

Tomorrow?  If I can get up when it is still cool... maybe some picking, and shoveling?  Maybe.  As well, gathering twigs, more raking... always with the branches after heavy winds.  Then getting all that sacked up.  Moving the trailer so as to gather bigger twig/branches on the far side.  With everything going, maybe get that load off the trailer.  If it is the last load, perhaps returning it?  Bleh.  Some, part, all, who knows.  I have things to do, and am getting some things done.  Not as fast as I could hope, but... not bad.  Especially for it being high summer.

Later, or good night.
