Mr. Natural gets a New Truck

2013 Chevy Silverado Z71 Fully Loaded 4x4 with bells and whistles

He has driven a 2001 Chevy S10 for 9 years.  We bought it in
2004.  Paid 6000.00 cash for it.  No air conditioning.  But it
was in great shape and would prove to be a very game little
truck.  Mr. Natural caught this commercial on TV regarding
if you had an older model truck and came in and traded the
older truck for a newer truck,  they'd give you  a 7500.00
cash incentive.  Of course, it was too good to be true.  The
deal was even sweeter.  He came back and woke me up--
so I went to the dealership  and bought a 40,000.00 truck
for the equivalent of 28,000.  Sweet or what.  He's in heaven.


The truck is a Z71--pic follows.  Have to admit it is a sharp
looking truck.  Mr. Natural talks only truck now.  Has to have
a bed rug--on its way.  Then it will be ready to function as a
truck.  It has bells and whistles--we haven't even read the
very thick manual yet.  Maybe when he comes back to
earth. 

The chickens are not happy.  Today around 6pm the sun
finally did shine.  Had been cloudy, humid all the day long.
But it did not rain today--which was a very good thing.

I am losing still more plants to powdery mildew.  I've
treated them, but their tender age and the fact that I
didn't recognize it at first did not improve the situation.

Seed that I ordered via Johnny's Select Seed came
today.  I planted over 3 plantings all my Zephyr
squash--and lost it all to powdery mildew.  Not to
be deterred, I am planting again.  I love that squash.

The replacement cord to my Kindle arrived today.
I'll find the old one now--but I had searched and
searched for it.  It has been charging all evening.
Be glad to have it working again.

And I've edited 10 plus chapters of my book.
Editing is tough.  I am a perfectionist and I feel
every mistake.

All for tonight.
