Lazy Gardener
Super Self-Sufficient
The blessing of it: the stuff is frozen before it hits trees, power lines or ground. Plow guy just left. This storm is going to be at least a 2-fer, if not a 3-fer.
Chickens are fed. This will be one of the rare days when I don't even open their pop door. I've cleaned the first load of snow off their tarp sun roof, and spread a tarp on the ground to catch more snow fall. When I knock the snow down, it lands on the tarp, and I can drag it out of the run. My goal is to prevent a 4' tall mountain of snow in the winter run (like I've had every year previous.)
I'm inside, warm, fed. Stove ash bin needs cleaning, then, I can focus on other tasks: cook up some more squash to go into the freezer, make a beef/barley soup. Hope to set up my shelving in the office to better contain seedlings and HP plantings. Bought an other set of containers for HP yesterday.
