I fell behind. Been super busy! Monday was a holiday for the small human so we planted broccoli, cauliflower, beets, lettuce, and caraway. We also picked the rest of the tomatillos and I ripped the plants out. I could have got more... I don't need more... so out they came!
Tuesday I pressure canned tomatillo hot sauce and refried beans.
You can see here that work has been light. So I've been home! Working!
Yesterday I got out front....Oh I have a LONG road ahead... my yard looks like nobody lives here. But less so now I guess. I sharpened the flat blade shovel and cut the Bermuda grass away from the driveway. It's been over growing for the last..... 7 years. Now I can see the edge of the driveway again.
I fixed the drip line out front.... Oh my... I had turned it off for about 9 months (everything is dying because of that).... There were gopher chews in two sections and one emitter flew off and left a fountain.... Ehem... I decided to fix it all, finally. It took me less than 10 minutes... I'm so ashamed that it took me so long to actually get around to fixing. However I'm okay with it because I want to redo the whole front anyway. But dang. I could have had happy plants if I had gotten around to fixing that a while ago.
I started raking all of the dead weeds up out front. Murdered the palm tree that has sprung up and blocked the view out of my driveway ( I just cut the leaves off, you can't kill them they're immortal). I need to call the power company. I can't dig it out and it's right next to their pole. It needs to go.
Today I gave away a bunch of my seedlings to the neighbor. I fed the chickens some kale, I'm chasing a new gopher... My pumpkins I planted for my DS are finally making carving pumpkins! You know.... way too late. lol.
Tomorrow we pick up our new camping trailer/toy hauler. Pretty sure we'll need to ratchet down the suspension on our RZR to fit it, but it should fit! If it doesn't.. well, crap on a flipflop. I measured as good as I could!
My hands are bruised to the bone from cutting out the Bermuda grass with the shovel and using the weed whacker. I done messed up my hands. Again. I hurt a little bit. Seeing the bruises is more concerning... I've hurt before, but not seen bruising like I have. And by a little bit.... I mean owwies, I can't grip the steering wheel to turn the car around.... So I think I definitely overdid it. Again. I'm good at that. Sigh. I need to go cut wood.... Why do I do this to myself. My husband has a word for it. "dumb ..." you know the last three letters. He's not wrong. But I'm running out of days without rain... I need to get all this done!
