This year we’ve grown just six beds of field or fava beans 🫘 Five beds of Vespa field beans and one bed of Sutton Dwarf broad beans (Fava) The Sutton have already flowered and set beans so we’ll have a crop soon 😛 The Vespa are getting taller and starting to show flowers. These produce tiny beans, many more per plant🪴 and they are so tasty 😋 #Allotment#Today#GrowYourOwn#Gardening
I had an easy day today! Got my grocery shopping and bill paying done. Watched insym play some games, and played Nier Automata (so far 9S's story is pretty in line with 2B's story). There are minor differences in respect to parts when 2B was disabled or fighting offscreen, 9S was acting as support.
Tomorrow, I'll get laundry and more gaming done as I will enjoy my days off!
I got off schedule yesterday. Discovered things I thought I had done hadn't been.
How can that happen?
I have a checklist and everything.
Turns out that the checklist, like having a plan, doesn't actually do the things.
After months of journaling every morning before anything else (including this post), I got caught up putting out a fire first thing and forgot to go back.
It was a gray, drizzly morning for my walk today, but it wasn't cold and I enjoyed walking in the rain. The rain is supposed to last all day, and I will stay indoors and dry for the rest of it.
In the last few days I've gotten most of the chores I needed to do done, and today I hope to spend all day writing. But first, I need some more coffee to get the brain cells working. Feel free to #joinIn and have a cup as well. #Today
Good Wednesday morning. The weather outside is miserable. My mood is sunny — my mom got the brace taken off her arm! She’ll have some OT to build up strength, but otherwise she’s good to go. This is huge for a woman who prizes her independence. Try going through a day without the use of one arm and you’ll see how limited your activities are.
After having every aspect of her life derailed since mid-January she can now move forward again. Onward and upward!
"Najlepszym lekarstwem na smutek jest się czegoś nauczyć. To jedyny niezawodny sposób. Możecie się zestarzeć a wasze członki zaczną drżeć, możecie leżeć bezsennie w nocy, nasłuchując szwankujących żył, możecie tęsknić za swoją jedyną miłością, patrzeć jak świat niszczą podli szaleńcy, widzieć swój honor zdeptany w ściekach barbarzyńskich umysłów. Wtedy zostaje wam tylko jedno - uczyć się. Dociekać, dlaczego świat się trzęsie i co w nim potrząsa." (T. H. White)
I tak robię 🤫 Uczę się ustawicznie. Również tutaj. Czytam uważnie Wasze posty. Staram się zrozumieć (szczególnie te, których nie rozumiem tj. informatyczne ) "co autor miał na myśli". Delektuję sie literackimi, uśmiecham na widok zabawnych, unikam nadmiaru shift postów. Fajnie, ze jesteście 😉
The removal of the tomatoes from the greenhouse benches gives us room to get the first planting of sweetcorn (Flagler) started. We put 5 seeds to a pot and 32 pots make a row. Once those are big enough and the weather warm enough they will get set out in to a row and another planting will be started. We try to have 2 weeks between plantings to extend the season. Last year we brought ~ 230 ears of corn to the table. #gardening #allotment #zone6b #NewEngland #BeetBear #Today #sweetcorn
#today#BeetBear and I got busy and planted up our cucumbers (Marketmore), zucchini (Dunja), yellow squash (Sunburst), and butternut squash (ButterBaby). After the tomatoes went out ,we had room to do this. Once these get large enough in a few weeks time, they will go out to grow on in the garden. There are 4 seed trays of each type, each tray has 6 seeds. The contents of each tray will be set out as is (minus the pot) in a hill of it's own. #gardening #allotment #zone6b #NewEngland
I woke up feeling more unease #today then promptly poured fuel on it by reviewing my social feed first thing. I've already done a little selectively temporary muting out of self defense. I may step away for the rest of the day, possibly longer, for the same reason.
I am at a stage cultivating my equanimity that often leaves me feeling like a raw nerve. I now rarely escalate yet haven't fully developed new, more healthy ways to cope.
Good morning, lovely people! Today seems to be about the struggle, to overcome being down about my IBS, being down about my allergic reaction to ADHD meds, being down about having to drive to get terrier fuel. #today
After all my gardening yesterday, I woke up stiff and sore, but I still went out for my early-morning walk. It's a beautiful morning and promises to be a good day, at least until the rain comes in sometime late afternoon.
The walk worked some of the stiffness out. The soreness persists. I need to get out there soon and finish the garden work. Then back in for laundry and writing. I've neglected the writing for a couple of days and need to get back into it.
How thoughtful. Thanks Noi Cafe. You always anticipate how long I will stay here. #today I see my wonderful Khmer daughter in law. We will talk and listen and do more of both. She's the only Khmer family member besides my wife I'm close to. Meanwhile thanks to this thoughtful coffee house.
