5 am

 One of those nights.  No sleep.  I just wish the sun would come up so I can tend the garden.  The watermelons popped up yesterday πŸ™‚ I hope they make it.  2 more zucchini,  green ones,  are sprouting and I have 3 new cucumber sprouts and a lot of carrots and radishes coming up.  I'm stagger planting some things in case the first ones peter out or just don't work. I do love doing all of this!! I love that it keeps me outside,  too. 

I go a little crazy with not being able to control how much I spend on utilities, groceries and household things. When I tried to start using the AC late to save money Jess and Kira got so angry 😠 that I gave up.  Nova pooped on Kira's bed and she actually complained that she was freezing in her room without her thick blanets!! I'm freezing right now. And I'm the one paying for this!! No. I don't say anything about the AC or the heating in the winter or about buying coffees that are to me ridiculously expensive. Elaborate meals that cost over $20 to prepare all the time.  Name brand almost everything. No.  I just go out and work in the yard every day that I can walk that far and it isn't raining.  I thought i might not be able to handle the recent 100 degree days outside but it wasn't so bad.  I was out of the house.
