July 12, 2012-Getting Hot Here-No Rain

It's 90 degrees right now at 3:30 in the afternoon. The humidity isn't bad but it's creeping up on us real bad by the weekend, when we might get a little rain. It's very dry here. We really need the rain. All the crops are drying up. I had a stray berry  branch growing out of the rock wall and I thought I'd see berries but now it's all dried up. Guess the animals won't have their blackberries out there this year. The berries were starting to turn from green to purple too. I was going to reach out with my grabber and pick one off when it got ripe..LOL We need some of the rain that is in the UK. They have gotten rain for ten weeks straight now.
I went out at 9 pm last night after it cooled down a little. I didn't feel like going early in the morning. It was quiet in Walmart but I still didn't get back home till 10:15.  I had to get my groceries. I will have to go out again on Saturday morning for more critter food. It's going to be hot but at least I can just go and get back fast. Won't be going anywhere else.
Sunday is Kailyn's graduation party in Oneida. I'm not going to that. I don't think I can go to any get togethers this year. Mostly because I can't walk very well, even with my crutches. I won't be going to Pam's wedding in August either. It's outside and I can not walk on grass or anything bumpy. And I can't climb steps to go to the bathroom if I have to. Even if there wasn't steps I wouldn't be able to go. All toilets sit so low that I can't get up from them. I just don't have the strength in my arms any more to do it. So I will stay home where I'm comfortable and safe from falling. I just hope someone will take pictures to share.
Today is my brother, Steve's 62nd birthday.  I didn't send him a card this year. I am done with him. He says so many nasty things to people these days. He's such a jerk. My brother, jim, won't even talk to him any more either. We've all given up on him. If he wants to kill himself then I guess that's what will happen. If he continues to grow pot and sell it then he will land in jail one of these days if he doesn't kill himself first.
I haven't talked to anyone else in the family so not sure what is going on. Not sure what Gavin is doing. He doesn't write on Facebook. I did see where he was in his best friend's wedding though. That was in Utica. I bet it's hard with his wife being gone and having the baby to take care. Although I think Cortney's mom is watching the baby for now.
I saw the Doe with the three fawns early yesterday morning. She was out alone this morning. I haven't spotted the fox pups again.
That's all for now. Take care everyone.
