The Old Folks Home

micro--
All my beds are doing well with healthy little sprouts begging to be thinned... EXCEPT for the carrots. If I look REALLY hard, I can see just a few little green threads above the ground...few and far between and nothing equivalent to the labor put into square-foot gardening for their bed. Fresh seeds, too. I'm really tempted to plow them under and start the bean towers therein.

Had a couple of carrots overwinter in a shady bed. Gorgeous tops. Pulled them after a few months and they were all tops and no real root (I mean 4" long and 1/4" diameter.) Okay. I can readily give up considering 5-lbs is $2.99 at the grocery store. "Uncle!"

Should have bought them all I was thinking after I got home. Bet I could have sold all the extras easy.

You might look into buying citric acid. Cheaper than buying vinegar and is a bit stronger as well.


What did *I* do?? I wasn't even here!


Hopefully you won't find out! Any odd low spots around?


Are lumber yards "essential business" there? Could they maybe deliver some to the end of your driveway?


I don't know that there are any concluded clinical trials yet with regard to this virus.


And with Kelsey here that makes ALL the rest of us OLD!


And then get shingles!


Nice that you will be home when you finish the race
You can ignore the BYC part of the email I sent, I was behind and didn't realize you had come to visit.


At FOUR!!!!


Wouldn't work well here given the poor cell signal we have.


Each is an individual. Let us know how it is working out in 10 years.


Wow, I'm a little surprised that some of your boys are still alive ... or you aren't in jail for child abuse.

Actually... my kids have mentioned that...

It sure does take a lot out of me, but I work very hard to keep an even head and not yell.

I get them eye to eye and calmly figure out what exactly was going on and why.

Even the time kid 1 drove my car into the creek... he had a reason....
