Isn't that a beautiful looking tomato? That was from last week. My mouth was watering thinking about BLT's and fresh tomatoes. This week. Yikes. My tomatoes, my lovely lovely tomatoes have blight and end blossom rot.
They are not sure what causes it, many different theories but I tend to lean toward the too much moisture and humidity. We have had a rainy rainy week. SOB.
My cherry tomatoes are the ones most affected by the blight. Being so tired and working all week I didn't pay much attention to the plants until it was too late. Almost all the leaves are yellow. I pulled off all I could see and the plant looks pretty pathetic. I don't know if any of the tomatoes will survive which is terrible as the plant was loaded loaded loaded. I am so sad. And my lovely big tomatoes. Will the bottom rot off everyone? Sigh.
So onward. Thank goodness for farmers markets. I need organic though. Fresh mouth watering organic vine ripen tomatoes. Yummy.
I am off work. And it is a good thing because I messed up the wrist I had surgery on. Did I mention my cyst came back? Well now the tendon they released is hurting. I hope it is temporary. All that surgery. All that money. Down the tubes? I have my brace on and am taking ibuprofen. I hope I just sprained it.
Work was stressful this week due to the politics of the place, not the patients. I had some lovely wonderful patients. Just a pleasure to take care of. I had this elderly man who was pleasantly confused I just had fun pampering all weekend and he was so sweet. I tell you he sparkled when I left he was so cleaned up. It is nice being able to have the time to do that.
We are getting ready to go out for pizza tonight. I am so ready to relax. We got a raise this week so I find out tomorrow what it is. Should pay for the pizza tonight. Not on the diet but definitely on the mental health diet. Sometimes you just have to feed the soul. A full Julie is a happy Julie.
I have included more of my waterfall shots from our trip last week. There are so many points of interest you can just stand in one place and slowly turn around and get a new shot. Smelled great because of the flowers also.
So Rick is patiently waiting and I think a beer is just what the doctor ordered today. Made it another work week. Life is good.

I have big green tomatoes for days! None are turning red yet. I'm afraid they'll rot too before they turn.
Take care of your wrist over the weekend and relax.
