Having Christmas, our wedding anniversary, sons birthday, New Years and my husband birthday in barely over a week definitely is a marathon for us. Tonight 6 teenage boys are coming over for a birthday party sleepover so food planning and entertainment are in the works.
The chickens are laying an average of 6 eggs per day now. Hurray! We just have a few more weeks when the other 4 should start laying. There goes our cholesterol level, lol.
The rabbits are doing well. I think they're lovin' the cool temps and are as cute as ever.
My indoor lettuce and spinach are up and growing. I can't wait to harvest some. :)
Last but definitely not least, the garden planning! I've been hard at work figuring out the details of next years veggie garden. I really want to make sure I plant plenty for us and a good deal extra for those who will be in need. Next year will probably be a lean year for a lot of people and I want to see if I can be of help.
I'll post my garden plan soon. I need to make the diagrams for it all first. :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Gardening 4 Life, I just checked my blog and found a new follower. Thanks for signing on as I just did yours. Since I have been gone for almost a week I have much to catch up on but enjoyed viewing your blog. I will definitely be back.
ReplyDeleteHi G4L, Wow, your December sounds a lot like mine! My sons birthday was Dec. 20th, then came Christmas, and tomorrow, the 28th is my husband's & my 31st wedding anniversary:) It's always been a little crazy:/ New Years will follow, and then, hopefully we'll be off to a fresh start on 2009, with only GARDENING thoughts on our minds!! Happy holidays! Jan
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your crops for next year. It's good to give to others as well. I for one can't wait to get started.
ReplyDeleteThanks. :) I have to say that the sleepover went well. I think the boys had a good time and I was able to keep the food flowing at an acceptable pace. Nothing broken or at least found broken so far. I did get some air soft bullet dents in my metal trash can lids that were used as shields. No bodily harm to the boys - "Thank you safety glasses!" Not too bad of damage I think.
ReplyDeleteNow to curl up with my seed catalogs and graph paper... Bliss
