I'm not dead, I'm just GARDENING!!! π©βπΎπ± I was sick in bed with CKD last spring and didn't get to do a garden at all so this is meaningful to me. π€β€οΈ
I got dressed and hiked down to the plant nursery in Springtown and got some plant starts for my garden, I got rosemary, mint, a red Mojave salvia, and a couple bluebonnet plants. πͺ»πͺ»π± I've got seed cups going for a couple kinds of tomatoes and several kinds of peppers, and I also have some mirlitons (some people call them chayote squash, they're way better than cucumbers IMHO) and sweet potatoes that I'm trying to sprout in cardboard boxes of dirt, the idea being to get them started and then just plant the whole box, I also have some ginger and beans planted separately too, and I have some potatoes with really pretty eyes that I might plant. Everything else is direct-sow. Today's mission should I choose to accept it is working on my garden beds and putting my electric chainsaw together that .williamsjeff sent me last year. It's supposed to almost freeze on Monday night so I'm gonna wait till after that cold snap to plant anything outside. And then it's supposed to get 94Β° later on in the same week because Texas weather is cray-cray. π±π€ͺπ©βπΎ
After I get my garden in, I need to get back to work on music πΈπΆ and jewelry π©βπ cause I need more money, I spent my whole $50 bucks on garden stuff like seeds, fertilizer, and diatomaceous earth to get rid of the damn fire ants. π«π₯π Meanwhile I still have my June Bug CDs available for $25 bucks, and plenty of existing inventory jewelry if you wanna help support my gardening project. I also take Venmo if you just wanna donate to my cause, PM me for details on all of that.
