And then There were Two Flower Beds
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
Today seemed like a good a time as any to show you my family’s Pilgrim Progress with the raised beds. Now, we are up to two. Both are looking might handsome. Brother person is trying to make one per week.
The rains have been favorable. We might just be able to get a good harvest. The bell peppers are starting to show flowers. At least, I think they are bell peppers. The store say they were bell peppers.
This time we bought the anti-mosquito plant. I gotta say it works pretty well. You sit right next to it, and it keeps the mosquitoes at bay. It is like a never ending mosquito repellant.
When you work in the garden, it is always useful to have one. I don’t remember the name of it. We kept it in its original pot to make it mobile. While I was planting the new tomatoes and vegetables, I kept moving the anti-mosquito plant with me.
For the first time, in a long time I did not get bit. We voted yesterday, so that was all fun. We went at noon because we assumed that most folks would be busy eating.
The line was pretty short. On the way out, a Comcast van parked behind us. It was a good thing we returned to the car quickly, cause the douche had the intention of lingering there. He was blocking our exist.
Don’t you hate it when that happens? It makes you want to grab a rock to smash a windshield whipper, or something. We did no such thing to the car. Still, looking annoyed at the fellow was enough to get the car to move.
The internet in that library was weirdly spotty. For some reason, the 4G in that area was pretty weak. This was a pity cause there was a Pokestop. It has now hit me that my battery is running low.
Of all the computers I have ever owned, the Lenovo one worked for like 8 years. This Surface Book is already having battery issues. As for the plugs, we have already went through 6 of them.
Don’t you hate it when things do not work the way they are supposed to? I suppose if it is still within warranty, I can have it replace. You know what would be better? If they made a computer that lasted more than two years.
The new technology of today sucks! Almost everything shows XXs for eyes as soon as you get it out of the store. I just have a feeling that the newer the tech, the worse it is going to be in one way or another.
Well, that is enough on that nonsense. You came here to read about plants, and plants is what I shall deliver. The only new plant I added to the mix was a different type of leafy vegetable.
I often eat it with the salads. One of the bell pepper plants had its first blight. Brother person noticed it early in the morning. He removed the little caterpillars and he placed them in the Ferns.
I guess it is just one of those things you have to deal with in the gardening world. For now, I hope your harvest is going well. In this blog, I included two photos of my new raised beds.
