What I'm Reading This Week #29
Howdy do all and welcome to your Friday. I hope your week treated you well and you're ready to recharge a bit. You know, when I started this gardening business, I had delusions of like, actually enjoying it maybe with my morning tea before the day got hectic. source Instead it's like the second the plants went into the ground, Mother Nature turned it to 11 and hasn't let up. The wall of humidity is ridiculous! I can't even go out to water or do something simple without looking like I was back on the chain gang for 8 hours. Or I get to see the 500th mistake I've made and end up ripping out my strawberry plants or moving other plants because they might be too close together. Watching my 4 puny tomatoes laugh at me as they choose not to ripen or grow while other people talk about mad harvests in which they can't pick them fast enough.

ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a fun day! Glad you got to be out in the white stuff with glee!

We are now in cold temps through the end of the month, with below zero nights, but no snow forecasted again except possibly Monday.
