What's Up at WRLG
FARM BLOG
FROM THE FARMERS POINT OF VIEW
The last couple of days have been over 70 degrees and the flies have come out in droves.....both outside and in the house..............ick......... It doesn't help that the warmth in the house and the temps outside , plus manure outside promote the development of flies.......
I thought I had gotten things under control till this last stretch of warm weather. So my little red dirt devil is my best friend and suck up unwanted flies very efficiently! I know the flies have been bad as I have heard it from people who don't have farm animals anymore but have neighbors with animals. So my plight is not unusual and the cold weather is due this week......which will help to tamp down the little pests. September went by so fast......It just amazing how fast it went.....good intentions were swept away by the hot weather and an overwhelming need to try to organize and finish spaces in the house.
I did do quite a bit of canning and that may have been one of the reasons that the month just passed me by. But the month of September is always hard.....A family friend died at the beginning of September 2022, my father in law died last year on 9/11 and 5 years ago Brandon (my husband) died on September 20 , 2018. The feelings sneak up on you at the strangest times. Things are moving along with the property and soon I will be free from construction......what a concept! |
