Sunday morning from about 6-10 in the morning. This is when we are legally allowed to water and my outdoor things need water. We all need water and even the squirrels, birds, and even those evil rodents and insects need it. The pecans not as much since they've seen a 50-year drought before, but everything else - hell, we're barely into June and all of the dogwoods, hydrangeas (everything), have gone into stress and the last thing I need right now is a 200 lb pecan branch coming through the roof.
It is really weird to accept Nature sometimes. I can go out there and throw water on the plants and trees, which inevitably bring the squirrels and birds, which my outdoor cats inevitably hunt to kill --- to bring back to me so as to say "thank you" for the neutering, cat food, and fresh water (not necessarily in that order). Circle of life, folks.
A drought is not a good thing if you happen to be a "water person" or anything living on this planet. This is why I would probably choose British Columbia or the Tropics for my permanent residence. But as it is, I'll settle for baths and days we can legally water. And Shirley is going to raise the rate - AGAIN? If it weren't for the critters drowning, I'd set up the kiddy-pool. At least the mosquitoes aren't bad for the first time. Again, circle of life.
And, it's Sunday. It will be 94 degrees today and if you go into your yard and your fucking WEEDS are dead and you hear crunch-crunch with every step....that means inside w/ AC, reading, nappy, movies.
Oh, and the best thing about Sunday morning? --- "99X - Organic X" on Sunday morning from 7AM to 12. I see nappy to mellow tunes on the horizon and a Braves boy made #1 on SportsCenter!
Who took their meds early?
