I like the quiet of Sunday mornings. Brushing and skimming the pool as I watch the reflections in the water is very therapeutic.
Really love the way the afternoon sun lights up the bird of paradise
Another weekend spent in the backyard. And, I do not feel guilty about it. This is my last full weekend of summer break. While I do not have to report to campus until August 7, per contract, I will be going into the office later this week. Hopefully, it will provide a smooth transition into the clown show that is public education.
On a happier note, I am really excited about this succulent planter. It almost died this winter, due to excessive rain and freezing temperatures. And while some of my succulents are getting sunburned in this 100℉ heat, these little plants are thriving. Makes me wish I had room for a greenhouse in the backyard. Some day.
Got to spend some quality time in the pool. My girl is always on squirrel watch.
Purchased several square feet of medium grade river rock today, along with an A/C filter, two new spray nozzles, and a houseplant for the kitchen. Also, my back is sore.
