Tomatoes...

Yes, we have tomatoes...



I know, again it has been a long time since I posted. I haven't really had much to say. The garden is out of control, the yard and herb beds are all out of control. It has been so hot that I have barely been able to go outside long enough to check to see what needs to be harvested. The heat is unbearable and is made even more so by the mosquitoes. I had one bite my eye earlier. Ugh...

I'm still swimming every weekday. I have been going for two weeks. I have only missed one day and that was this past Tuesday. I was so sick I could barely move and didn't go to work either. I'm still trying to get used to this new stuff I have to deal with. It is a real pain. :-(

When I started swimming I couldn't make it one length of the lap pool without stopping at least 3 times. Now I can swim the length and back (which I count as 1 lap) without stopping. :-) Yay! This morning I swam 20 laps and one of the lengths was 40 seconds. It was taking over a minute to swim a length. I'm just having so much fun swimming.

Anywho, the mystery plant I posted a photo of last time is now starting to bloom. I will take a picture tomorrow and post and maybe someone will recognize it by it's blooms. I have also found two more of those plants in the yard.

I think tomorrow afternoon I'm going to see The Bourne Ultimatum. I'm really looking forward to it.

Well, that is about all I have to post about right now.

Blessings,

Green Thumb Sunday...

Not much to post today in regards to Green Thumb Sunday. I haven't been doing much yard work as it has just been way to hot. I need to do some serious weeding in the garden and the herb bed.

For the first picture we have a photo of a cayenne pepper ripening.



Next is a photo of a mystery plant I have found in my garden. I know I didn't plant this and I haven't seen it growing anywhere else in the yard. Does anyone know what it is?



And last but not least is a photo of one of my eggplants.


That's all for today. I've done not much of anything today. I slept until 11 this morning since I didn't get to bed until 2. I read the last Harry Potter book yesterday and finished this morning at 2.

I'm anxious to get back in the pool tomorrow. I missed it this weekend. I may have to adjust my schedule and see if I can't get in an early swim on the weekends too. :-)

Alright, I'm off. If you haven't seen Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, I recommend you do. It was great!

Blessings,
