The weather was perfect today, even early this morning, so I plopped Ethan on a blanket outside and did a little work in the garden. We got our truck fixed this week, so yesterday Shayne and I picked up and unloaded another truckload of dirt, which filled 2 of the beds. A third was nearly filled, so I think a half load will finish us up. Finally. This morning I planted my peas, carrots, and lettuce, plus leveled the beds. While I was messing around in them, I found lots of worms, so I know the soil is good! I'll be planting my tomatoes soon, and I'm planning on a fall crop of broccoli and maybe spinach. Not as much as I wanted to plant this year, but.... eh, life happened.
Shayne's also been busy on the chicken coop. It now is fully enclosed!! Only another week and the girls can take up residence!! I can't wait to have them out of the house, because Ares is about ready to climb into the brooder and eat them. Awful dog.
And in other news... We've scheduled our floor sanding for May 26. I'm off work for 12 days, and that falls right in the middle. If all goes well, we should have a newly shellacked upstairs floors and staircase by June!!
