Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

[frustratedearthmother]

Still struggling to find time to get the gardening done. Between all of DH's appts and me being a tiny bit under the weather not a lot is getting done. Also need to do the first big mowing chore of the season. I've mowed the yard once already, (it needs it again) but I need to get the pathway to the pond and the high stuff around the pond before we get some rain. Pond is a little down now so maybe I can get close to the edge without going IN!

Some of the barred rock pullets have started laying. Yay! Probably going to sell a few of them and a few of the RIR's. Pullets are bringing pretty good prices. Might pay for a few bags of feed, which would be nice. I like it when critters pay for their own groceries.

I spent about 3 hours on the mower this morning and didn't finish everything. Got the front half of the pasture and around the pond, then did the front and side yards. Didn't get to the back yard because it started raining. Put the mower up and the rain stopped. Of course it did! So, cleaned and prepped another planting bed. Intend to get seeds in the ground soon!
