My garden is doing good, what survived that is. For some reason my two squash plants just killed over! I'm still trying to grow some in the grow bags. Almost everything is doing good in the grow bags. The tomatoes and pepper plants are flourishing, as are the cucumbers. The sweet potatoes and strawberries are as well. I've really enjoyed summer so far! I have harvested almost two gallons of blackberries! That was not fun, as I always get chiggers! Still have them! I'm sure there are more blackberries that need picking; I'm just not sure if it's worth getting more chiggers! The eggplant plants are producing eggplants! I haven't harvested one yet, as I want them to get just a bit larger.
I've been suffering with a terrible chest cold this week. I hate being sick, especially during summer when there's so much to do! I hope this stuff leaves my body soon! But even with that, I am so blessed! I just have to stop and look at God's creation to realize it. Everything around me is so beautiful! The hanging baskets, daylilies, green grass and trees! There's beauty in them thar' hills! Thanks, ya'll for reading my blog! Have a healthy and safe 4th! Blessings from Bama! Update!: I just came in from doing chores and my chest feels so much better! I'm beginning to heal, Praise the Lord!

Oh, I hope you continue to heal quickly! Sorry that you lost your squash plants. Looks like I have quite a few doing okay so if they continue come and get one!! Summer has hit full force here also even though we aren't down south like you. Enjoy your garden! Nancy
ReplyDeleteHi Nancy! Thanks for stopping by! Thank for you well wishes! I'm almost healed now! Blessings!
DeleteHappy Anniversary! That sure looks like a nice chair Randy is sitting in. Those girls are getting so big...what fun you must have with them. The beach looks amazing. That's a lot of blackberries - chiggers...we don't have so many of those here...gnats, mosquitos, deer flies - they keep us from enjoying some summer days. Bugs really don't bother me, I can be outside with Al and he will have a cloud of them on him and I don't have any by me. Must be something about how I taste... He is my best mosquito replent. lol. Have a good week. We are waiting to cut our hay on the 4th of July weekend when Al has a few days off. Pray for no rain so we can get it done. Enjoy your family.
ReplyDeleteHi Jacky! I hear you about the bugs! If you ever go picking blackberries, you'll understand about chiggers! Glad you don't have to worry about them! Our chair is so comfortable! And the beach was nice! Funny about Al and the bugs! We haven't had too many mosquitoes so far this summer. But I'm sure that will change! Hope the weather holds out for ya'll! Have a great weekend! Blessings!
