corner garden (where most of the tulips are at now) is somewhat cleaned up, it could use some finer tuned weeding than what i was doing towards the end but it will be ok for now until i can get back to it next time we get a break in the weather. getting the large pile of butterfly bush...

it's a beautiful bean. :)

and in the meantime California is finally getting some good rains to the south which also will probably be flooding in areas due to fires and mudslides and general mayhem. in the end though what i really hope for is a really big inflow to the Salton Sea and a lot of snow in the mountains for...

in looking again at Atlas this morning i'm thinking that if that bean had a few tiny eyes and a small nose above that mustach it would look like some guy singing. :) yeah, i'm strange, but it's morning... :)

@digitS' we get long periods of cloudy weather some winter season's where the sun isn't out much for quite a long time. my sister lives out west because she says that the gloom bugs her and the more sunny weather out west works much better. it doesn't bother me and i guess i am used to it the...

wow, so many of those are wonderful! :) really like the Atlas.

i saw an article some weeks ago about it being dry that ways. this came out today: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/england-drought-rain-winter-rain-b2864808.html but it says: "The North West is currently recovering." so perhaps you're in that area?

that kitty blends in pretty well with that chair... :)

tomato garden mostly done other than filling in the trench all the way, but i have a neighboring garden with some weeds in it that i can use that same trench so leaving it open for now until i get to that one - possibly will be able to get it done tomorrow. seeing plenty of worms in this garden...

beautiful day out there and glad i was able to get outside for a few hours. :)

hasn't it been rather dry there though? sorry for flooding.

last night's dreaming was strange and once again upon waking up i was telling myself that most of it was utterly routine and not interesting. the bit that was different was upsetting enough that i will not repeat it here but when i woke up i blamed Mom because of her episode of someone putting...

i was outside for a while today getting in some dirt therapy starting in on putting up the tomato garden. one trench dug and the leftover bean debris and some of the wild strawberry plants along the edge went in that and of course plenty of weeds. tomorrow the weather will be even nicer (5F...

busy day doing not much. :)

i don't count varieties any more because this year i planted a blend that has a lot, plus a lot of out-crosses which do not have names yet. in my harvest so far i'm seeing about a dozen brown beans alone, and not sure how many of those are unique or not, most of them will probably just end up...

it is so strange to me that people on the southeastern coast have such an early snowfall, but perhaps you are more inland and uphill and so i'm confused? ah, ok, similar zone so you must be inland enough for that to be the case... nevermind... :) :) :) however, as a postscript i should also...

i'm a tail end boomerish. the wiki has it all explained.

well, erm, uh, it's quite possible for women to get pregnant very early, as was evidenced by me where i grew up as the girl on one side of us got preggers by the guy on the other side of us she was 14 he was 12. my objection would be to the use of the word alpha...

i understood it. i may not remember it all but that's another issue entirely. :) :) :)

banana to help ripening just in case you don't get the reference... :) but we've never really had issues just leaving the tomatoes out on the table or counter to ripen other than losing a few here or there from rotting - we check them once in a while and toss the problem ones.
