Just give me Jesus

Moving forward........

Posted in THE HOMESTEAD
So I gained the advantage yesterday by getting "caught up" on my list-o-things-to-do!

Today I will make a bank dep, run to the library and drop off old books, pick up new ones, make a few phones calls to take care of some business. Come home plant my bulbs, mulch the flower beds, kill the weeds around the trim.
Wa la. The side flower bed will be done.

On to the fruit trees.

I heavily mulched those 2 weeks ago, so they are good for the winter. I need to wrap the trunks, and tie them down so the wind doesn't hurt them.
That won't take but maybe an hour or so to accomplish.

Then to the garden. Poor disaster that it is.
I need to start ripping out the dead stuff.
Before I go totally crazy I am going to take photos of the weeds and figure out 'what they are' and 'what in the soil makes them grow so well' so I can see what is my soil rich in, and what is my soil deficient in, and adjust accordingly. Then I am going to rip them all out and burn them.

I will continue to pick tomatoes as long the weather will allow.
My diary said that last year, Oct 22nd was the first "killing" frost. I lost everything that night. So it's getting close.
I canned 7 quarts of tomatoes yesterday, and will probably do about the same today.

I don't know what to do about the egg plants. They feel very firm, but they have hung on the plants for WEEKS.........I guess I am not meant to grow egg plant. HA HA.

I need to finish mowing the back yard, trim and weed wack. Then get out to the front. This will be the last mow of the season.

I am trying to get the outside finished for the winter.

I need to make a place for fire wood. Something to get it off the ground and let air circulate under it so that it will dry. I just need to figure out what to do.

I have a busy day ahead of me.......so I better get at it.
