Corn and Pumpkins from the garden plot |
After coming home from work, I promply biked over to the grocery, returned home to drop off the goods then headed to the garden plot. I was greeted with quite the sight! I have pumpkins!! Sugar pumpkins!! This is the first in many years that I have had success with pumpkins. And corn! I planted some Painted Mountain Flour Corn and I am harvesting away at those as well. I still have some to pick because I ran out of room on my bike to carry my booty home. I ended up having to walk the bike because I was so afriad the back tire would not hold up to all the extra weight. I weigh 240 , those pumpkins all together had to have weighed over 50 because I could barely lift the back of the bike to turn it around!

Corn drying in the now empty greenhouse |
The corn went outside on Saturday since we have a heat wave rolling through, complete with heat index warnings that kept me indoors with the AC on most of the time. I do enjoy going outside to drink my coffee in the mornings before the heat starts. Thankfully the nights are cool. I didn't get much done Saturday because my back is in sore need of adjusting so I ache very easily. There's just no money for it right now. I am hoping to get in next week if rent is covered. If not, I will have to endure through till mid September. Thankfully it is not keeping me from sleeping.

Progress on the applique on the wall quilt. Starting the sewing on that today.

Whew! I think it's about time to relax with some DS:9 and some hand applique to sew. Yeap. I am hoping to go swimming tomorrow but I won't be holding my breath (HA!). Sometimes things don't always go as planned.
Stick a pin in it!

Until next time...

You have been busy! I am very impressed with your pumpkins! They can grow themselves some years and this looks like a bumper crop. Also that bike riding has to be good for your well-being. You are leading a sweet life these days. Also, I love how the wall hanging is coming along. More pictures! Love em!
