my daughter…the weekend…my #$^^*$%^$#@ yard

this is Jena’s last day of school. 

 I didn’t get teary eyed this time.  I cannot believe how time flies.  In this last weekend, I have seen Jena get through her first year of school, go to a wedding for a 50 year old, and bury my husband’s best friend’s dad.  they say God doesn’t give you too much, but come on. thank god we leave for vacation on Saturday.  I hear the fish are biting, the water is warm, and they still haven’t put up a cell tower in town, so no service…yipee.

 On my gardening note, whoever has a garden should know that when a addict, you always buy too many seeds and never get to plant them all.  I have so much to get in the ground in 3 days (& do homework).  The corn is up and doing rather better than planned.  I will end up with 40-50 plants.  My lettuce is not so good.  I have had to totally dig it up where it was and put it on my porch for now.  Too hot.  I have my sprinkler system timed to every day, but it isn’t helping.  Word of advice to everyone, lettuce likes total shade!!!!  I don’t have too much hope, but my sister’s rabbits will love it.  My carrots came up and I am going to give them another good week or so before I thin them out.  The hound dog seems to be thinning things out for me with his digging. 

I did get some swap things and will take pic’s of them tomorrow.  I have 2 to send out and will get them done tomorrow.  I think we will need to get some Starbucks on the way out….
