The Old Folks Home

[LTAY1946]

Good morning old folks. Soon heading to the primary care doc for regular check up. I wish he was an orthopedic to and I could get a shot in the butt just below the belt line. So much to do and my back is about 80% out.

Frost warning for tonight. Freeze advisory for Wednesday night.

We went through a mini heat wave this week with highs up to 90F.

I hope you do not lose any garden plants!

Some Dr.s can give cortisone shots. It depends on how the practice is structured though.

Everything I've planted is not frost sensitive. Kale, spinach, peas, chard. The garlic and onions should be fine.

What I need to worry about are the blueberry and cherry blossoms. They are about 2-3 weeks ahead of schedule, thanks to the warm weather we had a few weeks ago. They're to the point that frost would damage/ruin them.

The bushes and trees are LOADED with flowers this year.

More mundane need to vacuum and mop.
Morning Old folks and life goes on.

I hope so too! Here there is mor of a worry about blossom rot from rain during blooming and fruit set.

I need to spray the nectarine tree with Sulphur this Fall. It is getting a scale fungus on it.

I got a cortisone shot today in my rear. Combination of a fast acting and long lasting that works global. Even will help with the allergies that are driving me insane. A couple more hours of rest and the fast acting cortisone should be protecting my back enough if will not go out.

I like my benadryl for allergies works for me.
Guess mine are getting better.

That is good news!

I'm dumping my zyrtec and claritin for benadryl. Normally a half does of benadryl to make me sleep better. Need more than that with this severe allergy season.
