Melany arrived this morning with the back of her vehicle packed with needed equipment. She attacked the garden that runs along the driveway with a vengeance! She worked so hard and made a good dent in the weeds in that garden...but unfortuneatley there are plenty more for her next gardening visit, which may be next week. I kept busy...but not with weeding. I watered my herb gardens on the patio...first time to water the gardens this year. I also watered the gerber daisies at the end of the driveway. I sprayed off the filter that goes in our downstairs air return and sat it on the ramp to dry...I kept going back to it turning it up and down and backwards and forewards letting the wind blow through and the sun shine on it. It dried fairly quickly. I had been wanting to clean that filter for a while, but our weather hadn't cooperated with all the rain that we've had. But today was a good day for doing that. I cleaned my hummingbird feeders and made new nectar for them...again, a job that I had been needing to do. The squash plants that Wade planted seemed to have a problem...white powdery substance on some of the leaves. Melany and I looked it up on the internet and found that a baking soda solution could solve the problem...so I made that solution and sprayed the plants. Tben I warmed the lunch that Melany brought for us. We enjoyed our lunch. Melany planted a plant behind the mailbox (Thanks, Linda!) after lunch and then packed up all she brought back into her vehicle and she was off so she would be in time for a hair appointment back in Murfreesboro. It has been a good and packed day. I am sure that Melany is tired, as she did soooo much more than I did, and, I ended up taking a good nap after she left! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
