Sit'n on the porch

[Grandmas Coop]

coffee pots on, 1/2&1.2 is in the fridge, pull up a chair and make yourself at home
I am not done with my inside chores yet.

I got my errands done yesterday and after I trimmed and mowed the garden area, pulled a few weeds.
I need to fertilize with the liquid fertilizer/swamp water I made- its in the big orange/brown container by the corn I think I am going to get 2 of my big canning pots and put what I need in them and haul it up to the veg. garden in my wagon.
A friend of mine, David Goodman has a video on how to make this

I got the jug off of Sportsmen's Guide.
Anyway- I dont know if I will get to it today-



I promised DH I would make homemade pasta and then- smoked salmon with homemade Alfredo sauce I also nee to make homemade coconut pecan icing today for the from scratch German chocolate cake for Sunday.

I have a load of laundry going, and am NOT done with my coffee
The chicken run needs raked and a make brooder,, for the hen who's chicks should hatch next Tues. or Wed. I have a lot of chicken wire I can use-
-the rest of the yard mowed; it didnt rain yesterday so the soaker hoses need turned on, and blablablabla the song that never ends

more coffee
have a great day

so with all that , that was on my list of things that need done
I did vacuum, cleaned the kitchen, got the soaker hoses going, and then..........
I worked on hauling wood chips up from our neighbors sawmill, one big wheelbarrow at a time, a 4ish/5 min walk
I still need 6 to 8 more. I am not going to put woodchips where the flock dust bathes.

Bengay on my knees and elbows- Aspercream on my feet and 3 ibuprofen--that wheelbarrow was heavy
