and yesterday i read

all day

gee i really AM lazy

it was dark and overcast and rainy, i put out poor little dulcette all by herself
and then came in and read an entire marion zimmer bradley book (one of her avalon series) then started on 'the legend of sleepy hollow and other tales' by washington irving...illustrated by ARTHUR RACKHAM (for 3BUCKS) i love washington irving.......and i adore sleep hollow
as well as the entire tarrytown area.......that's where rhinebeck is every fall.
that whole area ( well also pretty much all of rural new york state) sings to my soul.....
i could so well imagine having lived there in a former live about 200 or more years ago
and my mother's side of the family had farms upstate........ how i wish i did as well

so now today, if i prove to be awake.....which may not be as i got up at 8am surrounded by furry bodies
i should do chickens, then clean house
hahahah that is so not getting done
i can't seem to really get anywhere

i had a slight 'discussion' with bernie...... he's got these 5 fleets....so he runs AFTER work to one or another...... and doesn't get home until after 9....our home life is not functioning well because of this
and he is the walking dead most of the time
i fear for his health

in garden sorta news, i got my order from heirloom arces but not after going through paypal and threatening them, they shipped the very next day
these seeds better be good
i won't ever use them again though, i'll use holmes or fedco, pinetree, baker creek rare seeds .........anyone else but heirloom acres
i am going to sucession plant the green beans and put in the turkey gizzards maybe on the deck as i want to save seeds from them (turkey gizzard or turkey craw beans are fantastic green beans, i haven't tried them dried yet but as snaps they are wonderful.... they are an old heirloom variety, i recommend them and the white seeded marvel of venice as two fantastic varieties that are productive, taste wonderful and are open pollinated
the curved green pole beans i put in haven't broken ground yet but the marvel of venice are all up i think
i may have to replant them curved beans...

i would love to have a garden that is about 100' by 150' and do rows, cause i would love to have a hundred or two hundred feet of 'green' beans. as well as space for all the tomatoes, and peppers etc i would love to grow
meanwhile i keep making dirt and trying to raise the beds out back, while plotting to fence down the line (over 300 feet on one side) to put in alternating years worth of stuff...hahahaha
at least 100 feet of the line should be planted to green beans next year don't you think... then maybe peppers the year after?
i think that the current back garden eventually should be a winter garden and put the summer garden more to the front of the house.....bernie may not agree

ok i have to start my day, as i am sitting here in my sleep shirt and still on my first cup of coffee
i am so damn behind that i am beginning to really think bernie is right....i must be lazy

ok ttyl
