What a week. Been a while since I posted in my log. I've been busy with the house. Up keep and repairs. I got the pumpkin signs done and I gave one to The Mighty Mike Oliver. He loved it. that's a good thing. On Thursday I went to the mail box and discovered that the Wallace Clan had given me a bubble pack full of great seeds and My dream seed A Wallace 1288. What a great surprise I had had a bad week at work and getting such a great seed made my day. Made me feel like 1288 million dollars. Today I made a green house. A bit bigger and higher then it should be but then again I'll work out the kinks. I've found a good way to keep the greenhouses warm at night without having a light on them all night. Soon I'll add the plastic to them and staple away. Made a practice batch of soil soup. Or Field Chawdah as I like to call it. It's bubbling away quite nice it has a frothy spray on the top. My wife's plants certainly will enjoy the cocktail. I got a big case of cabin fever. Some of it was cured because of the sun. Power washed the driveway and will be getting the shed re shingles. So much to do. One thing a man always needs is 1. A good Doctor. 2. A forgiving priest. 3. A great Accountant. 4. A good set of tools or a great carpenter. lol! The worm farm is going strong. I checked out those guys and noticed that there where some baby worms that just hatched. Small tiny ones that have taken residence in the compost. That tells me that the farm is a working and functional one at that. The worms enjoy a good load of leaves and organic crap. The patch will be tilled once the weather softens up the rock hard ground. We need a good rain the totally rid us of the snowy spots. I dread having to till up the patch lotta work. It always seems that I have to wrestle that power tool around to get it to do the job it's intended to do. Hey My grandfather in the old country had a donkey to do that.
