It took 4 of the 5 bags of soil to finish filling the potato bed. Now I need to figure out what to use for mulch.

I didn't get the soil unloaded because the rain started again. So hopefully today I will get it done.

I don't think I could have moved with a backyard like that but sometimes we have to do what we don't want to.

I have found that a really hot shower and ice hot works for pain. Then my daughter gave me some lidocaine patches and WOW, what a difference. I take ibuprofen as needed or if I have a headache then I take Excedrin. Opioids I refuse to take and even though I am not allergic to it I always list it...

Thank you. I had a bunch of squash come up in 2023 from out of the blue. I didn't even know that I had planted that much. I dug them out and took them to the daughter in law to give to her former co-worker and she ended up letting them all die. I don't know if these will survive but I am hoping...

That's so funny because the watermelon seeds I bought are the same as yours.:lol::hugs

I just bought some more soil because I have to get the potatoes hilled up. I also bought spaghetti squash and watermelon seeds.

I also checked the big metal raised bed and saw some signs of my zucchini and yellow squash coming up.

I managed to get the dandelions from the front yard put in the big raised bed with the potatoes. I need to try to get the ground tilled for the corn and beans

I put the seeds in paper egg cartons and then put them on a cookie sheet. When I water I only have to place water in the cookie sheet. The paper absorbs the water and the seeds don't get disturbed.

I'm trying to start my own orchard so I just keep collecting seeds. I had a good amount of citrus seeds growing and my husband asked if I would go on the road with him so yes of course, yeah hedoublehockeysticks, not again after starting citrus seeds. I had them about 3-4 inches tall and when I...

Sometimes it sounds like they are splashing in their waterer. It's just such a peaceful sound.

I'm sitting here listening to the ducklings. Their little chirps are very beautiful and pleasant to hear. It's almost making me feel like I could just take a nap.

I decided to get a jump start on the summer crops: I have fennel, holy basil, zucchini, pumpkin, cushaw pumpkin, gourds, apple and olive.

Thank you. My plan is to make the garden easy for the grandkids to be able to come down and just have fun grazing and learning how to grow their own food.

The rain started last night when I let the dogs out to potty so no garden work today.

Thank you. I was with my oldest daughter yesterday and a lady was talking about gardening but she hasn't had any luck with her garden so I told her tons of information on how she could have a good garden and actually get some food from it. She was very happy with the information and ideas.

A much better picture of the ducklings

I need to get a better picture of the new little girls. I will do my best to make sure everyone can see them better for the next picture.
