So today, we got up really late since "princess pretty pants" (my brilliant & highly skilled mini gardening assistant) had been keeping the parents up 'til 2 & 3 in the morning we were unable to make it to church this morning. (Insert: Sad Face) So we were pretty much locked up in the house all day since the weather was rainy, windy, and chilly today. All I could do is peak outside every now and then hoping for some rain break, so I could get outside and finish cleaning up last years left over "garden funk", but disappointingly the weather did not let up. But I did get some gardening chores out of the way to day inside the house. The rest of my seeds that will be direct sown this week are all organized and ready to go. I've spent the last day and 1/2 sketching my final raised bed garden/micro backyard homestead, found my new 8x8 greenhouse, and found used wine corks for my garden planting templates that I'm going to make! I need 16 seed holes per 12inch square, 9 seed holes per 12 inch square, and 4 seed holes per 12 inch square templates! Because doing it with your fingers gets old, finger gets sore, and it's not consistent which drives me nuts!
If the mailman would just make my day tomorrow morning then I could get to watts landscaping and let the dump-trucks of compost deliveries commence! This is killing me everyone is so far ahead of me, I dream about spring/summer gardening season 365 days and 24 x 7 and here I am this behind!
And I found the chicken coop design that I want for our backyard micro homestead in the making! I can't wait to get to it!
Anyway as usual,
ijustwannagrow
