LallyLuckFarm,

whoever planted these was really going wild

Hah that’s going to be my memorial plaque at the farm when I’m gone! I’m glad that native cherry decided to leave you with some offspring that were in a better place for you to enjoy.

LallyLuckFarm,

Very cool! Which varieties of apple did you end up selecting, and have you decided how you’d like to train or manage them?

Yay violets! The tea is nice, and you can also use the flowers in salads for a pop of color. Also, garlic mustard -> violets; pesto, change-o?

LallyLuckFarm,

That sounds like a lovely summer veggie garden, I’m excited to see what you do with them! Small spaces can make it challenging to fit everything but they also make you use the space more creatively, and they look awesome crammed full of plants.

LallyLuckFarm,

Even here in Maine there are some large subsidies for battery backup systems. The state is even running a program for people who have them, where they can get paid for selling their stored energy during peak usage times.

LallyLuckFarm,

That’s exciting! Chilly microclimates can be kind of a bummer when other folks’ plants have bloomed and you’re still waiting, but there’s also that benefit of generally getting growth after the freezes are over.

Thank you for commenting in these threads! I adore hearing what everyone is getting up to in their gardens every week

LallyLuckFarm,

Why do I hear my name being called in the woods? Gray catbirds

LallyLuckFarm,

Forty years living in their range and having a name that sounds like their call, and they are still never my first assumption.

LallyLuckFarm,

Not just you, I thought it was engaging and interesting as well. The comment about artificial refuges really strikes a chord as well, and I would add man made brush piles to the list of reclamation structures for encouraging animal resurgence.

Also, I’m excited that I might be able to describe the various rock structures on our parcel with greater scientific rigor.

LallyLuckFarm,

Hah it was killer doing a first course of stone for a slope stabilization project but I’ll see what I can do bee fingerguns emoji

I wonder if the neighbors would let me borrow their horse…

LallyLuckFarm,

I’ve gotten permission, so I’m excited to share this news with you, my Beehaw fam, the same way I told my biological fam:

Life, uh, found a way.

LallyLuckFarm,

Very glad you’re off orders to rest, just remember to take it slow!

LallyLuckFarm,

Ugh, physical corrections like that make me sick, I’m glad you’re not going to take lessons there even though it’s an awesome set of skills. Truth be told I get a little sick even when the training language used is negative, no matter what certifications the trainer has.

That said, I’m glad the rest was awesome!

LallyLuckFarm,

Something I do when I’m depressed is discount the value of my own accomplishments. When I’m not in those moments, I know that I should be kinder to myself by being proud of what gets accomplished in spite of the depression, but when those times come around again it’s incredibly difficult to follow that advice. I’m really happy that you’re making such strides on the new meds, and hope that you find the space to be happy and proud of that accomplishment. Other people’s milestones don’t detract from the progress you’re making 💕
