:hit I'm in tears reading this. So sorry for your loss Pink. Just know you did your best and that's enough. I know it hurts but he had a wonderful life,for a time, with you.
Wow am I BUSY! The garden is almost planted and would have been done except I have to be at the office and take care of business stuff. I wish my business would have involved my love of gardening but such is life. I planted the eggplant last night and more corn this morning. I'm still planting...
Pet Peeve I despise people that can't put their big nasty wad -o- gum in the trash can. It isn't hard and if there is no can then try some scrap paper or kleenex or anything other that sticking it to the bottom of a table or spitting it in a parking lot so it can get melty in the sun and I step...
That one is hard for me to grow as well. The successful times are when I direct seed in the garden. Every time I think I can start indoors they bolt as soon as I put them out. I have never had any success with cutting off the flower and I just harvest the small plants before the flea beetles...
I have noticed that people in this area have started growing more of their own food but I think it's to help with already tight budgets. I live in Utah and the state is known for larger families so having the ability to grow more to put on the table is a big deal. Canning jars were sold out...

Well I spoke too soon, it's 61 and windy :rant I despise the wind but the low for tonight is 43. Usually means that it will be in the high 30's. Hope we get some rain out of this one just to keep the dust down.
hqueen13 can you tell me more about your hairless dog. I have one and it's so hard on her being itchy. I have used oatmeal shampoo, hypo allergenic shampoo and no shampoo. Poor dog is allergic to most everything. In the winter she wears a pink argyle sweater and I am hoping to find time to make...
It got warm here as well. Strange temps in a weeks time we went from winter to summer. Our water situation is very bad here so it looks like we will be a tinder box for the summer.
You made an excellent choice. I have had my Excalibur for 31 years and it still works beautifully. Money well invested and the things you can do...... :clap
I'm late getting the garden in as well and work does pay more! Spring is just a very busy time. Who am I kidding :idunno seems we are all very busy in our pursuit of self sufficiency.
