More of the same, sweat and Amazing Grace

Today's work ticket

Take Quicksilver to a garage sale. I will give her a dollar for helping in the garden. I expect her to buy a stuffed animal with it.

Plant more potatoes. I had a shipment of seed potatoes show up yesterday. I want to get four-hundred feet of row planted.

Plant the last four fruit trees. I have two Liberty/Bud-118 and one each Winecrisp/MM111 and Galarina/MM111 left.

Mow grass.

I am not dealing with the sudden onset of heat very well this year. I need to buy some sweat-bands to keep the sweat out of my eyes. I am also thinking about purchasing a straw hat because I cannot find the one I wore last summer.

At least I can sweat. I worked with a guy who went through chemo-therapy and his hair fell out. He said the summer he had no hair was the hottest summer he ever endured. I think the damage to his hair follicles also damaged his ability to sweat.
