I’ve been soooo bad. Just kept working in the house doing cleaning and holiday stuff. Never even went out to uncover the garden on the milder sunny days. Probably not doing too well.

I have never neglected the winter garden for soooo long a time period before. Now the bad weather is back for who knows how long.

They’re fine. If they don’t get rain, water them if they’re really dry. They’ll come out sometime in Feb or Mar in your area. They’re just sleeping, they’re not pining for the fjords.

They really pushed us around, didn’t they? I would never have thought of bringing a lawsuit against an instructor who violated the rights I didn’t know I had. The world was a safer place then (except for the Nazis, the Fascisti, etc.).

Don’t feel ad, I did the laundry for the week since my wife has been out of town. I did check the garden and she will be pleased to have fresh turnips on the menu for Friday evening.

We have a few onions doing the same, and are wondering the same thing. I think now that the holidays are past, I may plant a couple in a pot and put it indoors in front of the patio door next to the lemon tree and see what happens.

I am not making a list. I have sooooo much from last year, and a bunch of the packets were not even opened, as I ran out of time and energy.

I’ll have to get a couple of things for Hubby. Especially the corn, or he’ll get the corn seed and won’t ask if it is GMO or Heirloom or what from the local feed store.

I haven’t tackled celery yet, since we don’t use much. Just a handful in soup, tuna or chicken salad.

None of us care much for broccoli either, so we don’t grow it. I do like a little cauliflower now and then to eat raw, but don’t like it cooked.

I often unintentionally fall asleep and nap for a while at around 6 or 7 pm. Just get a real tiredness that swoops in and I sit down to just rest a bit, and next thing I know I’m waking up.LOL

Good to have a spare. We don’t have wifi. We have a router for 3 computers. One is a dinasaur for the grandkids to play games.

Hubby’s is newest. Mine is so old it’s no longer supported, but I’ll use it till it drops.LOL

You’re welcome. I have watched several of his videos lately. Another features his misting system in his greenhouse. I liked that one too.

To be completely honest, I watch too much youtube since I discovered you can actually learn things on there!
