 This is a hard post for me I believe strongly in the power of hard work, so I push myself, usually to the limit. But it’s no longer just about me. I can work myself to the bone, push my body farther than I should and I’m usually ok with that. I mean yes, it does wear me thin. Yes, it does get exhausting and I do have break downs. I’m not super human or anything. But the problem comes when the list of things to do is longer than I can handle at a comfortable pace, so I push.

A what?!? I think with all the brush we’ve been clearing, and all the yard clippings, the best thing to do is build a hugelkultur mound. I’ve never built one, never mind grown in one, so this will be interesting.  (Not my photo)
 Inside: I don’t have much going inside. Just a few cucurbit (squash, cucumber, pumpkin) seedlings that I started just in case my other ones bit the dust. I do however, have quite a few random odds and ends leftover outside on the greenhouse shelves. I’m contemplating selling them for cheap, if anyone local is interested. Outside:
ITS BEEN CRAZY BUSY! Things around the "homestead" have been so very busy. I've been getting the garden going, and trying to build our food storage a little more. I've been learning to make wine and mead, and keeping Gummy Bear busy with walks upon walks. So, in lieu of a garden update (I know I missed April, and now have nearly missed May) I figured I would just give you a ton of lovely photos to look at. I promise a proper update for June, as well as some posts on wine/mead making. Enjoy for now!
