Weeds
Cat On a Cold Tin Roof
I was sick recently. Just now recovering and recovery is slow. I don’t cough very much anymore but I can’t work long and hard, if I try, my legs get shaky and I just want to lie down wherever I am and take a nap. Both Bet and I were sick at the same time. … Continue reading
Moving Right Along Updates
Orphan Calf The calf didn’t make it. It failed to regained its sucking urge enough to handle the bottle in spite of whole bag of Lactated Ringers and tube feeding. Bummer yes, but not a huge surprise. My headache will go away, Bet’s watching Australian girls who are dumber farmers than us and laughin’, and … Continue reading
How Does My Garden Grow?
Whew, boy howdy, this is not as easy an assignment as it would appear. Fishing_Guy, you must be joking, right? I’m sure that Mac, Darla, Gail’s Man, can come up with wonderful concise but all encompassing pictures and quickly decide which shot says it all, but I’m supposed to put it all in one picture? What makes … Continue reading

Several Posts In One

Sittin’ Around?
No time to sit around. Which is probably a good thing considering the state of the weeds around and under this bench. I love irises.
Am I Always Apologizing? Sorry, I Guess I Am.
Rank weed growth. That is what I came home to. I was already far behind in my gardening efforts because of the Romantic Influenza, okay and who I am, add to that 8 days actually gone, one day packing, one day baking, and there were just to many weeds and mayhem for my mind to … Continue reading
Weeds And Paths, And No Weeds in Paths, Hopefully
Argh. Okay, you have probably surmised from previous posts that I am subject to confusion. I don’t mind weeds. In fact, sometimes I cultivate herbage that most people would consider weeds. But in certain places I can’t handle them. In some places instead of delight and wonderment they cause irritation, frustration and mild depression. As … Continue reading
Be a Total Killer or Not At All
You know sometimes I’m just not sure who I am. Like today, I had finally had it with the weeds in the driveway. Driveways should either look like a country lane or be impeccably free of weeds. Even though I live on a farm and my driveway is pretty long it will never be a … Continue reading
