The Good Day All Thread

Good morning all, it's raining with a moderate breeze from the south south west temp 8c
So I won't be doing anything in the garden again but it should be drier next week but colder.

 

Good Saturday morning all. Currently 20°C and overcast. I am crossing my fingers for some rain today!
SO much to do today, but first my visit with Dad. I hope to get my veggie garden planted this weekend!
There is also the laundry, cleaning and grass cutting that needs done. I wish there was another one of me!
Have a great day all

 

I wish there was another one of you as well...and that she lived nearby. She could help out with the lottie. Ha ha ha....just what you are waiting for—more work ! Right?

 

Good Sunday morning all. Currently 18°C and overcast. Still no rain, but I am hopeful.
I managed to get most of the grass cut and trimmed yesterday, as well as the 4 in ground areas of the veggie garden rototilled yesterday. Planted the carrots, swiss chard, beets and a few other things. I also stopped at a perennial farm and bought myself some new perennials. Today I hope to get all the tomatoes planted as well as the beans and zucchini. I also have the front ditch to mow - it really looks ratty. Laundry is already on so it looks like another busy day!
Have a great day all

 

Oh, happy day! My kitchen is back and functioning! The workman showed up this morning (on a Sunday, yet) to finish up the edging and remove the last remaining equipment. I've just spent two hours putting things back where they belong after cleaning countertops. He had cleaned the countertops, but I'm a bit possessive about my kitchen, so I cleaned them again.
It looks so good! Now I'll have a happy week ahead freezing broccoli, cleaning lettuce, and baking, baking, baking!

 

Congrats on getting your domain back, Jane.
Yeah, SNAP. The Bride totally gets the re-cleaning the counter tops. Totally.

 

Morning all
That's great news @marlingardener it's back to normal for you.

It's raining again so won't do it in the garden again.

 

Good morning all, sunny intervals and light winds from the north west temp 8c
Going to do the hanging baskets today.

 

Good Wednesday evening all. Currently 16°C and cloudy.
Our 'significant rain event' was a bust. A couple hours of light drizzle and it was all over. No more rain in the forecast for another week, but the temperatures will be milder.
I got most of my veggie garden planted yesterday and that makes me happy.
Now if I could get a good nights sleep tonight I would be even happier!
Have a great day all

 

Good Thursday morning all. Currently 8°C and clear.
I'm up bright and early after a good nights sleep, and ready for another busy day.
Hoping to get the veggie garden in at work today, or at least part of it.
I will need to till the pumpkin patches first.
Have a great day all

 

Good Saturday morning all. Currently 16°C and sunny. What a week!
Got my tomatoes and peppers planted Tuesday during the heat wave and they were doing great! Thursday night I found out we were under a frost warning so I had to go out and cover them all with flower pots. Friday we had a snow blizzard and today the covers are still on because there is another frost warning tonight! Mother Nature is really confused these days!
But at least today I got all the grass cut and I'll do some weeding, Hopefully tomorrow I can get the rest of the garden planted!
Have a great day all

 

Netty, this has been a really up-and-down season! I sympathize because we are going through the same thing, but with wet/dry not cold/warm.
I picked lettuce and sugar peas today, and checked on the other developing vegetables. I need to weed the flower beds, but that will wait until the soil dries out enough that I can get into the beds without compacting the soil. Maybe July?

 

Good morning all
Sunny with light winds from the east north east temp 11c
Precipitation 2%
Sunrise was 4.54
Sunset 21.17

Sorry to hear about the trouble that you are having Netty, it's so frustrating when you have to keep uncovering and then covering plants.
With my wallflower seeds and seedlings have to make sure that they don't get too hot. They won't germinate when it gets hot and I have to keep moving the trays into the garage and the seedlings but then have to make sure that they get enough light so they won't get leggy. But today I can put some shading fabric over the small greenhouse because I've moved the plants around again.
Have a good day all.

 

Good Sunday morning all. Currently just 6°C and sunny.
So today, after I remove the cover from the tomatoes and peppers and water, I will begin the task of looking for homes for my 4 new varieties of hostas that I bought the other day. I'm not sure what possesses me to buy these new Hostas as I know I am out of space in the shade gardens. I also have 3 more 'full sun perennials' to find homes for as well as 5 flats of annuals. I was waiting for a good rain before planting all this stuff, but they have to be planted! Another busy day ahead!
Have a great day all
