So, nothing really new going on. My garden is not going as I had hoped, the weed situation is out of control, i probably could have kept up on it if i would have known that the area i live in gets torrential style rains for 2 months in the spring and that my garden needs to be 'trenched' and 'mounded' so the water runs off and etc etc.
The corn is doing well, the sunflowers are doing well, but it is because they are mounded and trenched and my new tomato plants and pepper plants are showing signs of life, the cucumbers are flowering and huge and that is fantastic.
however the other plot looks so badly I want to mow it down.
alas.
we are dogsitting this week and house sitting and cat sitting, and i have a rare opportunity to make money doing gardening chores at the house, and i have permission to do whatever i damn well please.
still waiting on some of michael's clients to pay him, and then all will be right as rain.
oh, and i've given up sugar. it blows but apparently i am prediabetic and that is not good as it does run in my family.
i'll try to update more. sorry this is so dry but i've been really sporadic. lets hope that we get to move into the big apartment soon.
later.
