…broken record. You know, the old 78 RPM vinyl disks we used to play on the phonograph? That kind of “broken record.” Well, it’s an analogy: I’m comparing it to my monotonous repetitious mention of the weather and the heat.

I had every intention to work on projects inside my trailer. However, I went shopping at Tractor Supply, and Lowe’s, for garden items and several more plants. Specifically, I want to get another green pepper plant started before the present plant dies.

Sweat was pouring off me as I foolishly worked (briefly) in the yard mid-afternoon. To my surprise, and delight, I saw my first Periwinkle bloom. Thriving plants make me happy; stricken plants make me sad.

5:18 PM temperature per Houston NBC-TV news: “96 degrees in Livingston and ‘feels like 103′.” ~~ If it is cool where you live, count your blessings!!
