Hello!
How has everyone’s weekend started off?
We have been busy. Lots and lots of little things to take care of.
At least the cash I ordered came in early and my travel cards finally arrived so have them sorted out (and tested)
I decided to plant those tomato laterals in the other side of the raised bed. I made a little fence so they hopefully won’t loom over the carrots too badly.
My plan is to go and pinch off a bunch more laterals and leave them in a jar of water – my guess is when we return from swanning about Japan they will be well and truly ready to be planted out.
I took time this evening to clean out the chook house. It was due – nicer to leave it with a fresh start for Beau, our house sitter.
Poor little crook chook is not really getting better. We think we may have to dispatch her before we leave. We are so sad about that, but we have run out of time to do our usual nursing and we can’t expect Beau to either nurse or dispatch (He is about to enter into his final school exams so we are trying to make things easy for him)
I have left her sleeping on the nest – she has had lots of lovely special feeds in the past week.
The other girls were happy to snug up together in their clean coop.
The compost is now well and truly full!
The lettuce patch is full of sturdy little self seeded tomato and broccoli plants. I am hoping to relocate them (goodness knows where) before we go.
The white iris should unfold tomorrow!
Even got a bit of a sunset tonight! By that point it was getting dark so I had to quit and come inside for the evening!
Hope everyone has a super fabulous weekend!
Cheers!
