A day off in the garden, hot sun, planted lots of flowers, and then it rained.

A day off. Back to the countryside. There are so many wonderful summer things to do there. I'm planting a garden. Lots of plants this time. I'm actually really tired. And it was hot. Very hot and strong sun. In a field, basically. Nothing to block the direct sun. And I'm planting plants. All kinds. Lots of them.

I tried to plant them in the shade of the fence. It seems some plants burn in such direct sun. So I planted some in the shade. There's still a lot of sun there. I planted so much that I got really tired. Tired of standing just standing. Or standing like a zombie. And not moving. Then I took a small step. And realized I was tired. Then I sat and sat for about 30 minutes. Then another 30 minutes. And I realized I was definitely done planting for today. Until next time.

I need to not only plant. But also rest. Do something else. Didn't have time to take photos. Of the sky and the grass. Something interesting. I didn't have time to capture this beautiful day at the countryside with my camera. To remember it later and publish it with text. I didn't have time to play on the computer. Or solve simple Turbo Pascal problems. And I also have a signal booster and a modem for the countryside internet. That's also something to do. There's a lot to do. And I was just planting. And I'm tired.

But plants are interesting. I like how they grow. Watching them. A garden is what you need. A great hobby. So, for a significant part of the day - while the sun was bright - I planted new flowers. Lots of flowers. I don't even remember the names. Unfortunately, I noticed that not everything is growing. But what I planted last time - asters - they're growing. Excellent! That means something new is growing since last time. And this time I added a lot of new things. I'll see what grows.

The asters even changed somehow in the sun. It's as if the color of the leaves is different. And they've become bigger or something. The leaves are sharper or something. The sharp leaves are Zinnia. But the Aster seemed the same. Asters need to be planted once every five years in the same spot. I'll read up on that. Maybe there's a way around it. They're big Asters. Marigolds also grow very well. Those red ones. Bicolor, I guess. I got the name a bit mixed up. But it looks like Bicolor. They're also excellent plants.

I'm continuing to garden. This is the second or even third time already – it takes up all my time and energy. But that's not bad. Summer. Summer house. Garden. What else is there to do? After all, you just tinker with the flowers. And relax. And get some physical activity. And some passion. And a positive attitude.

So, then I got tired. Extremely tired. As tired as I've been in a long time. But I planted most of everything. And then I sat and rested. And then the weather changed. While I was resting, I didn't notice the hot, strong sun. A blazing sun. First it gave way to gray clouds. Then darker. And then it was like a light autumn. With a gray sky. And then it started to rain. A good rain. A real summer rain. It lasted a long time.

I just sat and watched. Resting. There was already a lot of water. The rain kept coming and coming. It seemed to stop. And then a second round. It started again. There was thunder. And even lightning flashed. But such a flash. I didn't understand it at first. I sat on the porch and watched the rain fall. After being tired, time passed quickly. I came to life. I started walking normally.

And then it was already evening. It got cooler after the rain. And I just ate chicken soup. Ate oatmeal. And went and lay down. At first, I just lay there. And then I fell asleep. A pleasant sleep. Because I was tired after all. The day went well. I concluded that I need to plant steadily. To do something else. But still, I had to plant. So it was a normal, good day at the countryside! I will remember this day! And with the rain. And the hot sun. And the garden, how I planted everything. I planted so many, many things!
