Yesteday I showed our daughter how to add and turn the composter-shouldn't be too complicated for a girl about to head off to college!  :)

Due to the continued rain, the greenhouse is still in the garage, but I am DETERMINEd to get outside today and have a list of tasks to accomplish:

• Remembe that it is muddy
• Get boots on
• grab newspapers and peat moss
• head out back
• Get Layering!!   In the three new lasagna beds.......whatever can be done.....just do IT!
• move the small pile of woodchips from where the greenhouse goes
• Place the greenhouse
• wipe the dust out of the seed trays, put in newspaper pots, fill, water and plant-
• gather up as much of the garden stuff that can be added to the tumbler, add more leaves and wate and give it a go.
• Place leaves in second side in preparation for filling
• keep a sense of humor in the event that downpour forces me inside
• If weather allows, mark off the sqare gardening lines..........for visual stimulation

after all that fun it is my intention to go pick up some more seedling mix, and make some more pots for the plants that get started next week.  If time allows, I would like to straighten off my gardening supply shelves in the garage.

When all that fun is over, it will be time to hit the grocery store and find something for dinner..........both girls are home from college tonight so the family will have the opporunity to eat together.

Off to the mudpatch!
