-> It's finally turning green here!!! Looks really pretty. My back lawn
-> already needs a cut. I've got plans this year for a new herb garden
-> (if I can figure a way to keep the dogs and cats out), and I'm going
-> to start some veggie tub gardens. Way to old (g) to start digging up
-> large veg. gardens! Figure the tubs will be more than manageable and
-> easy to care for. Since there are just the 3 of us at home now, I
-> don't need all that many tomatoes or cukes...and certainly no
-> overabundant zucchini!
Well it ws cooler here today. Down to 91F I'm watering everything like
crazy trying to keep it from dying. Got to my paper flower plant a
little slow and I nearly lost it. I may have lost 2 of my new birches.
It turned hot really suddenly. Put up the sun awning on my patio last
week. The patio is one the west side of the house and is about 16' x
36' and gives new meaning to the word hot. Last summer it got hotter
than the thermometer would go and the day got hotter. I'm going to be
putting the misters up on it ASAP. The garden is started, all but a
couple of the herbs are planted. I put them in containers. Some of the
farmers are doing the second cutting on the alfalfa already. It looks
like its going to be a hot year. BTW...Try sprinkleing black pepper on
areas that you don't want the animals in. It doesn't always work but it
works more often than not.
Had the chiropractor out for Diva. Stupid horse threw her back out.
She started out upset with what he was doing but by the end of the
session she was trying to help him. It was cute.
