When I was picking up farm share the other day, I got really confused for a minute or two. There were watermelons and cantaloupe. We don’t get melons until the late summer…. And there is was. I felt the time warp hit me hard right then and there. I honestly felt a wave os shock run through me, like how could this possible be? Well it is. And it’s now August and I don’t even know.. But hey, at least I got some watermelon so there is that. Ha.
The week was good. The mr and I went kayaking, we hung out with the littles and let them meet Gigi, had dinner with my mom, voted by mail, and I cleaned out my closet. I also cried again about my garden. The woodchuck, he came back, got under the fence, and ate my first zucchinis, beans, and flowers. That fucker has destroyed my garden AGAIN this year. AGH! The mr is trying to trap him but I kind of feel like I have given up. There is no replanting again this time, but I still have tomatoes, as of now anyway….
Besides that, nothing really new. The mr has been working a lot on a few big projects and I have been spending a lot of time in my studio working, getting ready for when the studio opens up again and I can start getting more work fired and glazed and out into the world. Hopefully I will have a massive shop update in the next month or so!!
And we made it back to Sunday and I am happy for it. The mr and I were planning on going camping tonight but as of last night that was still up in the air. We might just take off for the day and find a quiet spot away form people and chill out. Either way, we are heading out of town to the woods. Our happy place.
