What I'm Reading This Week #29
Howdy do all and welcome to your Friday. I hope your week treated you well and you're ready to recharge a bit. You know, when I started this gardening business, I had delusions of like, actually enjoying it maybe with my morning tea before the day got hectic. source Instead it's like the second the plants went into the ground, Mother Nature turned it to 11 and hasn't let up. The wall of humidity is ridiculous! I can't even go out to water or do something simple without looking like I was back on the chain gang for 8 hours. Or I get to see the 500th mistake I've made and end up ripping out my strawberry plants or moving other plants because they might be too close together. Watching my 4 puny tomatoes laugh at me as they choose not to ripen or grow while other people talk about mad harvests in which they can't pick them fast enough.

For regular stick, nothing beats Unscented Arrid XX Extra Dry for me. For spray I used Unscented Dove and that does a pretty good job. I do have Lume actually and I agree that even the unscented does have a strong smell to it. However, I notice the smell goes away once it's dried on my skin so then I don't smell anything, and I like that a lot. The "stick" is not a solid like Arrid, and is almost like a lotion so you have to work it in for a bit. I've used the tube Lume on the bottom of my feet and that's helped a lot with foot odor issues since I'm in socks and shoes all day. The order I wrote them above is my picks for #1, 2, and 3.
