What wonderful little treats coming! Watermelon and zucchini are growing! We also have a littl gopher that made all the way through or garden (which has fencing deep in the ground) to surface in the grass. Augh! Thought we solved this issue. One of the things our urban farm deals with being Next door to an orange grove. Still blessed!

The heat is getting to be too much. Wilting leaves, total plant loss and points of extreme disappointment. When you are down, always do what you need to to lick you up… swim to stay cool, do projects indoors to stay cool, and be thankful you are healthy enough to experience it all day by day!

Unexpected blessings come when it is super hot outside, your refrigerator in the garage breaks and you lose a bunch of homemade juice and freezer items, and the heat devastates some or your prized tomatoes. How do you cope? Smile and appreciate you had food in the broken fridge, be thankful you have a refrigerator in the house to use, be grateful for air conditioning, be reminded that you have other plants and shade. Most of all…. Get your home improvement hat on! Start a home renovation project or adding another bedroom upstairs. Focus on what you can control.

On this warm day I am reminded of these wise words….”Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather."

No matter what your weather, be grateful you are able to experience all its glory! Today we enjoy the heat and sun! , , , @ Phoenix, Arizona

I agree with this so much, “So often is said that value does not lie in material goods themselves, but when people create the conditions that make them seem necessary, their value increases. The capitalist system is based on the notion of ever-increasing production and consumption of material goods, and therefore, in the modern economy, people's value or worth comes to be determined by their possessions. But if people create conditions and environments that do not make those things necessary, the things, no matter what they are, become valueless. Cars, for example, are not considered to be of value by people who are not in a hurry.”~unknown Let’s all slow down and celebrate the life around us. In so many ways you are forced to slow down and look at nature grow. Just loving the growth all around me! @ Phoenix, Arizona
