AT THE FARM TODAY

As this publishes, I will have been up at 7am and headed out for the day...

After last weekend's washout, we're back to clear skies and warm weather and I have a long list of things to do.  In a perfect world, this is what I'd get done:

Mow

Edge

Plant the cherry bushes

Plant a fruit tree

Transplant the pineapples into larger pots

Restring the deer fencing

Set up the garden watering system

But it's not always a perfect world.  I need to stop and get gas.  I need to stop at the garden center.  I need to get some supplies for the garden and trees.  I will mow for sure.  I'd like to edge but that can wait (who's gonna see it? ha).  I will definitely plant the cherry bushes.  I need to add some fishing line to the deer fencing around the fruit.  And I have to get the garden on the automated watering system now that our water is back on and the days are heating up.

If I can mow and we don't get any rain this coming week, I might not have to mow at all next weekend and I can make this a two part list. 

Check back tomorrow and of course next week and we'll see what all gets done.  2nd Man has to be in all weekend on a project for work but I'm sure we'll get some good food in at some point.  And Hobart will be napping, as usual.  Hope you all have a great weekend!

  1. Have an enjoyable day.
    We are under a wind advisory here. No wearing a cap outside today; it would be apt to blow into the next county

  4. Oh, I miss being able to grow pineapple. Makes me think I need a greenhouse. Enjoy tackling that chore list!

    1. this is our first time trying them so we'll see how it goes. We definitely have to take them inside during a freeze but most of the year round time is good.

  5. I make lists of "to do" things all the time. And, feel like I accomplished a lot if I get four out of seven things done. It's going to rain again this week - ugh!

    1. Oh my gosh that's always been too, I like to make an ultimate list and if I can knock off a majority of them, I feel good. Stay dry we have rain coming tomorrow.
