You know what... as far as I'm concerned, those who don't want to read about gardening can skip your posts. I want to hear. Please don't back off.
You talk about composting but you're talking about doing it directly in the soil? I got a composter this year and my son, being well-intentioned, dumped a bunch of stuff in there but didn't know where the instructions were so he dumped all this stuff in there and watered the heck out of it. Oh well. There's a big lump in there still and I don't know what to do about it. Should I just try to get it out?
I too have many many projects but my body won't cooperate. My lower back has been out for a couple weeks and it's just this week getting back in shape (thank God for chiropractors) however, I wish it would come along faster. My upper back has been out for months! Also, I'm quite heat sensitive and sunburn easily. So, that doesn't help with summer chores. Also, money is an issue.
But according to the forecast, its supposed to be cooling down! Yay!
Maybe I can get outside and get some of the smaller stuff done... I'm building a grow out coop/run for some of my baby birds that need to be able to stretch their little legs and develop some coordination and strength.
I have a HUGE pile of horse manure/straw out front AND out back and no method to spread the stuff. I need a machine of some sort.
Keep advising on the garden stuff Missy. I'll be copying and pasting into a document to keep for myself.
