Cliff no longer has Pillsbury Dough Boy legs and feet.  For many months now he hasn't been able to go for walks or move around without experiencing some pain.  His weight remained the same no matter how much he watched his sodium intake and food portions.  When I told him his feet and legs were hard-packed with fluid and he needed to see our doc, he denied that anything was wrong.  Finally, he must have gotten tired of hearing me (nagging) and made an appointment to see what he could do about his Pillsbury Dough Boy syndrome. With a change in some Rxs and an added diuretic, he's dropped 12+ pounds and now slowly dropping a pound here and there.  Husbands just need to listen to their wives because usually......most times.........we're right! 

We got a couple more inches of rain in the past week.  Temperature was a soggy 63 degrees this morning.  Peas are up and trying to attach to their fence.  I have to cover them at night with thrift shop sheers so bunnies can't snack on them.

new fall broccoli

Melrose peppers

Best luck with peppers I've ever had.  The plants are heavy with peppers.

Morning glories. 

 Planted them later than I should have but with all the rain, they are doing well.  The fall garden is much smaller because the sun doesn't hit the entire garden for 6-8 hours as it is lower in the sky and is blocked by the tall trees.  We'll be grateful for whatever we get in this fall planting.
