In laws suck. At least mine do. I feel for you. Maybe they'll get lost on the way to your house. Or get eaten by something big and grotesque.

It's still hot here. Ick. We got a small rain shower yesterday, but nothing much. We're in severe drought conditions now, 22" below normal rainfall. I'm not looking forward to the 4th of July - the county has banned fireworks, but I really hope no one does something stupid and bring some in illegally. The grass outside our house is actually crunchy. I think that would be considered a fire hazard, no?

Our garden is rockin, tho. Drip irrigation systems are awesome. Even with 100F temps I'm still getting a gazillion tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes, at least....the freakin dog (the lab mix, not the retarded Dalmation) keeps walking off with the larger ones and the Romas. I put up some netting yesterday to keep her out. I saw a massive pile of green tomato puke in the front yard, you'd think that would teach her to leave them alone, but no.....at least they haven't re-eaten it yet. Nasty creatures.

Got ribs going in the slow cooker right now. And the toddler is taking a nap. I don't like age 3. I'm really hoping someone will sneak in and steal him and return him to me when he's 5.
