Daily Greetings

Good morning everyone!
Had a week of rain. My rain gauge measured 9" total after 4 days. I think we are now going into hot/dry weather in Houston, but everything is so green and pretty right now...my lawn is screaming to be mowed ...:chores: .
... and the mosquitos are back..:grrr:
 

I finally made it out into the garden today. Pruned the grapes, peach and nectarine in the poly tunnel and the apricot tree in the greenhouse. I also pruned back a huge bank of cotoneaster so I'm pleased with my labours.

All that fruit growing! I'm jealous of that, and the greenhouse! I've got an orange tree growing and green apple tree. The apple tree does good every year .. not so much the orange.
My future hope is in berry bushes I've planted recently..
 
Very good went out for afternoon tea present from my niece.Full now cakes and butties sorry sandwhiches and scones do you have scones in America.:)
 
Sydney has just had 19 days in a row above 22 oC (71.6 oF) and May is the last month of Autumn.
previous warm spells in May have only lasted 9 days.

Today we've had some rain and it is most welcome, particularly as May was also very dry.
Winters are becoming much shorter over here.
 
Morning all. Beautiful sunny day here in the West Country...but where is flaming June. Rain forecast back for tomorrow.
 
Good Thursday morning to everyone. A warm day with light showers, very good to give the
new plants in the garden a quick start. Enjoy the day.
 
BDBoop, Are you in an area that floods? We are in a flood zone, but we grew up here, so we are use to it. At least our log cabin is up on concrete piers, so the water go under this old place. Be safe.
 
I'm not in any danger, no. Most of the concerns are hydroplaning vehicles, swollen creeks, lakes and rivers, etc. Last I saw, the Mississippi was threatening to overtake Hwy 10 in Elk River. :(
 
We are in the oldest house in the area. Everyone else is on flat concrete slabs, and they have to repair the walls and carpet every few years.
I don't work anymore, except for cleaning and cooking. I've been on disability since my last set of seizures. RA has me in a wheelchair most of the time. So I'm really grateful to ST for being here.
PS: I think your current BDB is the prettiest so far.

Thank you very much! This one is not actually a graphic, like the rest of them are. It's a picture of a piece of art. I think I'll keep it forever, I'm on plenty of other forums that I can wear other Boops at. :)

Re; your body behaving badly, I'm sorry to hear that. Is there any treatment or dietary changes that can make the flare-ups less debilitating?

Is your home wheelchair accessible?
 
BDBoop, No, not much, I see a Dr. about every six weeks, and its just a matter of trying to manage it all. The RA showed up at age 25, and I've had seizures since I was seven. I've been dealing with the pain since I broke my back at 10. My Dr. says the pain is what is driving my BP. Most mornings it is around 185/114. I put off taking the pain pills as long as I can, because I don't like the feeling. And I feel the same about muscle relaxers. Michael insists on me taking them by five. My BP goes down to around 116/75 by 8:00pm. My health has always been wacky, so I got real good at ignoring it.
