It is still raining here on the Redwood Coast and we are at 175% of “Normal” with normal being 32” vs 52” today and it is raining this morning. Have only got 2/3rds of our strawberries planted and no mulch or drip lines on those yet. Every thing is behind schedule and getting worse as Lady Bender needs a knee replacement very bad.

Sorry to hear about Lady tubebender’s knee. When she sees
her orthopedist she should ask if he’ll make a half circle cut around the edge of the patella rather than a straight cut down the middle of it. The half circle allows her to kneel later on at the knee heals.

Sorry about all the rain, but just think the moisture helps the Lady’s completion and the soil moist.

Rain did keep me from filling my potato pot, and the potato plants have gone gang busters, hopefully I can still get some potaotes with the addition of soil.

I had my second knee replacement done last year, April 25. It was so bad I was using a walker. My first knee was done in 2008. My biggest issue is blood clots I always get them and wind up being in the hospital an extra 2 weeks. Still can’t go down a flight of stairs normally. I hope Lady Bender’s goes well and I will pray for that.
