It had been light snow, off and on, all day. Now we have this. Seriously??? It’s supposed to continue from how to about 2am. The forecast of just a couple of inches in total over the span of three days is now 7.75cm/3in just for tonight. I am so tired of winter. Watch, we’ll get … Continue reading Seriously?
Checking on the seed starts in the basement this morning, I had a lovely little surprise. At least three lovely surprises, though two are pretty hard to see in the photo. Looking at the photo more closely, though, I wonder if there’s actually five sprouts. These are the Dwarf Dazzler Cosmos. It hasn’t even been … Continue reading Our 2026 Garden: we have sprooooots! (and a weird update)
Well, I’m certainly glad I didn’t push things yesterday, more than I did. But first, the cuteness! This is me, trying to get Sir Robin to show me his messed up eye. I can’t tell if it’s gotten better, or just looks different. There is definitely some sort of cloud over the pupil, and discoloration … Continue reading A quiet day
Yes!!!!! We have the truck back, and it’s actually working again! But I’m getting ahead of myself. This morning the cats had me up early, so I did the outside routine that my daughter has been doing for the last while. This time, she got to sleep in. 😊 We had fog warnings overnight, and … Continue reading Walmart stock up shop: This is what $455 looks like
Well, sort of. More like a tease. Today’s expected high is -1C/30F, which we’re supposed to hit later this afternoon. It’s bright and sunny, though, and feels a lot warmer. It was -12C/10F when my daughter did the morning cat feeding. While doing the second feeding of the day and a few other things around … Continue reading It begins
Today, I started on the seeds that are in the 6-8 weeks before last frost category. These are what I sowed. In the first picture are the four varieties of tomatoes we will be growing this year: Chocolate Stripes, Manitoba, Blue Berries and Orange Currant. I just realized I made a mistake of some kind … Continue reading Our 2026 Garden: next batch of seed starts
Today being the first day of spring, I just had to do a garden tour video. 😂🤣😂🤣 Well… it was warm, sunny and things were melting all over, at least. The snow is getting super soft, which made it actually harder to walk through, even where paths were shovels, as it would sometimes give way … Continue reading Our 2026 Garden: March garden tour
Better start with the cuteness. Misty using Ghosty as a pillow, who is using Cheddar as a pillow. There were actually 6 cats mashed together in this particular cuddle puddle. So… update on the truck. I got a call back from the garage. He had called the parts supplier and was assured the replacement differential … Continue reading We’ll figure it out
