We hit the ground running yesterday. It was run-around-town day, and we did just that. Lots of stops. We were looking for the right fertilizer for the peach trees. Duckman told us to get Super 10-10-10. We couldn't find anything except 10-10-10. I sure didn't want to buy that. That's my least favorite formulation.I figured that we had some anyway somewhere. I did find some something-52-something to make my blue water! That I like. When we got home, I checked the outhouse, and we had a whole bag full of 10-10-10. I got the peach trees done. I also bought another thistle sock for the backyard. It didn't take the goldfinches 5 minutes to see it. There were at least 10 on it. I did make a big boo-boo. When I opened up the bag, I had it upside-down, and the seed started pouring out. I dropped the bag to stop it. I scooped up as much as I could and put it back. I guess I did lose some, but oh, well. I'll check today to see if something got the pleasure of eating it off the ground. I started putting out the Holland Bulb Booster, but the leaves were so thick I quit with that other than the new Daffodil Bed. Mr. Hummer returned. He was in the front yard as well as the backyard. I de-leafed the Back Forty, the Old Gourd Garden, The Outhouse Bed, finished the Herb Garden, and started on the Poison Garden. They aren't completely done, but I wanted to get the leaves off the iris so that they could get some booster, too. I may never be able to bend over again. I lost count of the number of buckets of leaves that I carried to the chicken pens. I did NOT want to come in. I didn't quit till 7 o'clock. Today will be pretty again, so I'll be back at it.

Help stamp out mole hills.
I'm a leaf on the wind.
A living legend needs eggs.
Chickens are people, too.
It takes time to tat.

I'll have to list the names of my flower beds and do a little explaining later. |
