I was so ready to enjoy a few days away but felt anxious about my garden. Last week we had extreme temperatures, one day it was 109 and then we had a 106 on another day. My poor plants looked so stressed out.
Right before we left I deep watered and hoped for the best. Luckily the weather cooled the day we left and I felt a little better.
I couldn’t ask my kids to come and water, because we were all going to be together.
My sister-in-law who usually takes care of my garden while we’re away, lives across town and it’s hard for her to get a ride to our house, and she doesn’t drive.
We also have squirrels who have been stealing our tomatoes. One day we had a good sized tomato and then the next day it had disappeared.
But I was surprised to see that mi jardin survived.
I came home to some red ripe tomatoes and a few zucchini.
I felt so relieved!
I quickly harvested my bounty.
Thank you so much for stopping by.♥♥♥♥
