The Work of Robert

 

Weeding and Watering

 

Again?

 The morning was pretty normal.  I wanted to see the TV show called Matlock.   The show was continued from yesterday.  After it ended at ten, we drove to Fillmore.

I pulled up to the Fillmore hospital where Carol got out of the car.  I parked the car and then walked in.

The IV was already in her arm.  The nurse hooked her up to the drip.  It took a little over an hour for the bag to empty.   We stopped at Cluff's for small hamburgers, French fries, and a freeze.  We then brought it home for lunch.  After lunch I started to water the south garden.

I pulled out the milk weeds that was growing in the dahlia bed.  I pulled out two at the same time ended up with the root system.

I watered the green arrow peas and the celebrity tomato plants.  I also dug out some of the weeds.

I watered the cucumber plants.  I also pulled out all of the weeds in that row.  I was on my hands and knees.  The rough ground was hard in my hands.  I used a lawn chair to hold up my arm. 

This an example of four cucumber plants.

This the dalhia bed after I pulled out the milkweeds.  It looks so much better.

Hospital

I was up pretty early again this morning.  I started to read from the Book of Mormon, but only read a few verse.  I didn't have time to read any more.  I fed the cats and made old fashioned oatmeal mush. It was about 7:30 when Carol got up. I made breakfast.  Carol is still not feeling well.  I went out to the garden and began to dig up weeds.  There are so many weeds it is hard to weed in one section.  I did weed around the onions.  We watched some TV and then I drove Carol to the Hospital where she ls getting another treatment.  

We were there a little early.  Carol got out and I parked the car.  We had to wait quite awhile before they had a room ready for her.   

The hooked up the I've.   We watched TV news while the liquid drained out of the bag into her arm.   It was a little after one when we got home.  I worked some more in the garden.  Carol got another call from Dr Grose.  We went back to hospital.  They wanted to take some x-rays of her lower back.  She got one more call from Dr Grose.  He wanted a stool sample.  We will take that to the hospital tomorrow.  Carol is eating and drinking a little more.  We watched TV until we went to bed.

Father's Day

We went to bed a little earlier than usual.  I recorded the time that I got up for the bathroom.  I woke up three times.  I weighted, recorded my weight and showered, said my prayers and then shaved.  I was going to read from the Book of Mormon, but Carol got up and there wasn't time.  She is still sick, but she did eat her breakfast.  I fed the cats and prepared breakfast.  After breakfast I watered the plants in the front yard.  I then watered Robert's trees.  Richard called wishing me a happy Father's Day.  Carol stayed home and I went to church.  There talks in sacrament meeting were good.  Sunday school was exceptionally good.  I came home and had dinner.

Elizbeth and Lisa called.  Robert and Jeanne came and gave me a pair of Cloggs and a black t-shirt. Robert and I walked through the garden and greenhouses.  They visited for a while before they went home.  We watched TV until we went to bed.

Weed Eating, Pulling, and Digging Weeds

 After breakfast, watching woodworking shows on TV is what I did.  After that i put on my boots and took the weed eater and cut down the weeds at the nursery.  After that I started after the weeds in front of the truck.  It is here where the battery went dead. 

I did the weeds up the lain east of the greenhouses.

I did the weeds sorth of houses two and three.

There were a lot of weeds north of house four.  They are to the left of the soil and held up by the rocks.

I found two small mushrooms in the front yard.  They are a little larger than a quarter.

These large mallows makes a beautiful statement.

I pulled or dug every weed on this planting bed.

There was a lot ladybug larvae.  They look like tiny alligators.  I got the picture but can't see one anywhere in the picture.
