Garden

The other day my friend Kellie called up and said " I have some s##t for you" My first thought is "what?" Then I understood. She really did. She had 2 black garbage bags full of aged horse/cow manure for me.

We did the poop exchange at work yesterday. Today I was going to work my garden. I needed to weed it first and also loosen up the soil then work the poop in good. Well I was out there, almost done weeding and BOOM BOOM! Yep, big ole thunder storm came. As fast a bunny I unload the poop in the garden bed and came inside.

We are having a nice one. It's making the house tremble. And now we are getting a down pour.
I feel like a farmer when I say this, but we needed the rain. The other day it was windy and I felt like I was in a dust bowl. Farmer Brown plowed his fields and the wind really made it dusty.

P.S. I am so glad that my dog is not afraid of thunder. She only jumps when I do! And I just did.
That was close.

  2. I'm glad for the rain too, except our lawn is so long, our mower is at the John Deere dealer getting repaired. I really wanted to have it mowed so it looked nice for my party on friday, but I guess everyone is going to get to look at our shag lawn and huge crop of dandelions.
