Had to come inside

Because Bob was taking a short nap, I hung out inside. When I did finally go outside it is really too hot to work for long.
I moved some stuff down to the shed, I watered everything and did some repotting.
I also startled a little black lizard in one of my planters. He must have been all of three inches long.
In my bag of potting soil I found a brown spider that was roughly as big as a half dollar if you count his legs. I do not know if he was a grass spider or a wolf spider. I have never checked the differences. If I find out I will let you know.
I have mixed up the brush killer liquid, but have not used it on anything yet. I mixed up a gallon.
I needed a drink and did not have any outside, so I had to come in. I feel like the witch in the Wizard of Oz "I'm melting".
Bob is fixing his Janzen's Temptation casserole. Our eating is all off for the summer. Lunch is around 2 and supper is at 7.
I have plenty to do online for a few minutes, so I will.

Summer gets to the best of us. Sounds like you got a lot done when you were out.

The lizard wouldn't bother me; but the spider would! Stay cool and hydrated and have a good day.

I do everything I can to avoid being outside at this time of year. I feel like I'm melting if I even go outside for 1 minute!

My climate doesn't include lizards so I would enjoy studying one.
