Hello – I didn’t catch up with Ruby today, but I will tomorrow, so hang tight, belated Ruby Tuesday coming.
Cousin Jeff dropped in with a ute full of rocks!! Cooooool!
During some work with his Pop, Cousin Jeff came across a farmers rock-stash and asked him what he was going to do with his pet rocks 🙂 Happily for us, they wanted to get rid of them!
Of course its so tempting to dive right in and start a new project straight away… but some grain of common sense filtered through my brain and I left them well alone for now.
I went about town and delivered 4 dozen eggs. It was an off and on again rainy day, but in the end, a long ‘off phase’ let me get a start on the raspberries. (Right now its bucketing down again!)
Lots of weeds/grass growing unchecked in among my beloved raspberries
I must say this was a tough job today – but only because of the wind! It was hideous! Does anyone else get totally skitty when working in howling wind all day?? It was driving me doo-lally!
Luckily the seaweed was fairly wet, so it didn’t just blow away as soon as it was out of the bag… keeping the newspaper that is underneath in place was a challenge! I might have said one or two swear words today…
Its not finished – I ran out of seaweed (and patience)
I am sure I will get back to the beach within the next week to stock up and finish the job. Just happy I made a good start.
I then took pity on my poor little snow peas! I had tied them back to try to get them to latch on to the rebar and grow up – but the wind was whipping through them like nothing else, so I found a bit of scrap shade cloth and made a bit of a wind break for them. It made an instant difference – they ceased getting flung all over the place! Now maybe they can concentrate on growing up and producing some flowers!
Hope your day was (or will be) excellent
