I Cut My Foot

While I was taking my morning walk. It is right in the arch so doesnt hurt unless I step on something that pushes against it. So I wore my shoes for the rest of my walks today. That helped. I am wondering if the cats left a bone laying in the yard to get me.
I did get 2 rows of green beans done this morning. Then this afternoon I could see a surprise storm coming. So I went back out but I only got about half a row finished before it started raining. That leaves 2 and a half rows to do. The rest of the garden wont need as much work.
Hubby got the tomatoes cooked down this afternoon. We now have 8 quarts of juice. He said he would like to have 8 more for making chili this winter. So hopefully I can get 20 more pounds of them soon.
I did get Whitey Sh ithead a toy today. It is just a ball and I hung it on a string. He wore himself out playing with it earlier. It was nice and peaceful for about 2 hours after that while he slept.
Hope you had a good day.

OMG! You're too lazy to play with the poor kitty yourself!
I hope he has a good time with the ball on a string you set up for him.
Did you spend hours scritching George today? Surely it wasn't too hot to do that?

Yes I am. He is using my ash tray as a pillow right now. He loves chasing it around.
No I did everything else.

@DaddyEvil He had ashes on his whiskers. And to keep from strangling the little brat I need to smoke.
Only if he comes up.

@wolfgirl569 I bet the kitty looked adorable with ashes on his whiskers.
Poor George! You make him work for his scritches!

Cats love to play with anything that is dangling.

I enjoyed my day at home working on this site as well as Quick Surveys, Branded Surveys and writing an editorial on Deviantart.

Keep an eye on that cut. Have you had a tetanus shot recently? Sounds like you got a lot done.

It just broke the skin enough to hurt. Shot isnt due for 3 more years. I keep track of that

I'm sorry you cut your foot. I can't go barefoot as I have such bad neuropathy in my feet. I envy people who can go barefoot. I hope it heals quickly.
We had a surprise storm, too. Not even forecasted. Rained very hard, hailed a little, had some winds, then the sun came back out. Very humid this evening. That's good about the tomato juice. I used to can over 200 quarts of tomatoes and at least 50 quarts of juice every year. We had a big family and we all shared stuff. I miss the canning, but it was a terrible amount of work. I live in a much smaller home now, and don't really have room for all of that now. Wish I did.

My feet feel better when I can go barefoot. Sorry you cant.
Glad we had no hail. My green beans are just starting to bloom. As it just me and me and hubby we dont need a lot of juice. I dont mind the work as it tastes a lot better.

Home canned foods are so much tastier than store bought ones. I am glad your husband helps you with the canning.

That would hurt. This was a twig or small rabbit bone. The cats have been catching some of the young ones.
