Good Evening Everyone,
I hope that you all had a great productive week and weekend. Like I have mentioned, I have been pretty busy in the house trying to get just general house things done, painting, working outside as I can. I am so very far behind in the garden, and I am afraid that it is going to be a cool summer here, where I will need to leave my greenhouse plastic up for most of the summer like I did last summer, to get anything to grow and be productive.
It has been very chilly here the last few days. We had 2 1/2 inches of rain the last few days and nights, we really needed it, but we also are having pretty chilly weather, and I do have tomatoes in. I had to put them in, they were getting root bound and starting to die, so I had to take the chance. I have covered the tomatoes with greenhouse plastic and am just hoping for the best. My problem is: I lost my south side because of the south idiots so, I do not have the heat from the house to protect the plants, so I am just hoping I can stay ahead of Mother Nature and a prayer. It is supposed to drop to 32* tonight, and tomorrow, with even a wind chill of 23*, so yes, I would say, winter does not want to let go of her grip yet. And to think that we had 85-90* last week.
I covered my berry canes, and did cover my lettuces and greens, so they are OK and can take the chilly temps. I have my cucumber seedlings and squash in the house under the lights and they are in the "it" room where it is warm.
Other than that, that is about all that is going on here. I really have not been in a gardening mood, to be honest, I am very upset that I lost the south side, which pans out to about a 5 ft by 50 ft section of garden that I could use, but I cannot risk loosing any plants I put in and pay for from idiots. I'm not even going to risk it. I had that a few years ago from some other idiots and I lost a lot of money in plants and produce stolen, so I am just going to bide my time and hope for the best.
I also want to thank all of you for your words to help me through this very unhappy time. I do not feel isolated with all of you along side me. You are the only reason I can get up in the morning with my coffee or tea and get through the day. Thank you all my friends. I love and give hugs to all.
Well, I am going to quit for the night, I am beat, tired and am going to sit and read a new gardening magazine I got in the mail this afternoon, so I wish all of you a wonderful upcoming week.
Hugs

Wishing everyone a Happy Mother's Day
Good Morning everyone,
I'm still here. I haven't been sent to the pen or the gulag YET. But I thought I had better post that I am still here, but I have been sand baggin' and have been pretty busy painting and trying to get the garden in at the same time. I have been pouting a little bit also, but I have to get up and going. With all of the crap that had happened, I am oh so far behind in the garden it isn't even funny, so I have been trying to whip a bit of garden that had not been in garden for several years, but I am getting it done. It isn't going to be a pretty garden, but just functional to produce something. Hopefully it won't fail me, as this is done very slapped together. I will post photos later.
Update from next door, the south idiots had a brawl last Tuesday night. I was sitting outside with a cup of tea after supper and heard screams flying around, I didn't look, as I knew what was going on, but the neighbor lady right across the street seen it all and went in and called the cops. She had a front stage view and unfortunately, she and a tenant she rents to was out in front talking and the tenant ran in her house as she is a survivor of domestic assault and the neighbor told me later she was petrified. I told the neighbor that it will have to be up to the other neighbors to call the cops and I cannot because of the blame game crap the owner and the these trailer park trash pull. The neighbor said she was going directly to the owner to bitch about them and to file a complaint about the male running around in his underwear showing off his manhood. See this male does not venture out too much, but when he does, he is in his underwear walking down to the west of us to another crappy trailer park that's worse than this one. From what I was told, the whole area is complaining about this male as we don't know if he is a pervert or what. So, the story continues, I will keep you posted.
Well, I am going to get dressed and ready to work today. It has been beautiful the last few days and have really got a lot done. I have been very exhausted also. So I will try to post more as I get things done.
I wish all the moms a Happy Mother's Day. Enjoy your day.
