It's me garden that's growing green! Look!! (And my blog too! What do you think of the new format?)
(note to self: when uploading your photos, try to make them a little smaller than 280,375 MB so they don't use your entire upload limit at once, and so they fit on the page, goatbrain)
I have been making good use of my time today, grubbing about in the dirt like a peasant. So far today I have:
- hoed the front garden (hey skanky ho, whatchoo doin' in my garden!?)
- pulled out a lot of weeds (and not the good kind)
- mowed the lawn
- went to the plant shop and bought tomatoes and lettuce and corn. And herbs, yummy, sweet smelling herbs
- planted tomatoes and lettuce and corn, and watered and mulched (the hardest bit was getting the highly compacted sugarcane mulch out of the packet!). Look, look! There are my veggies in all their minute glory
- I was going to lay another course of bricks on the highly complicated herb garden we're building, but I couldn't find the trowel. When I asked Mr Fe2O3* where he'd put it after laying the first course, he said he hadn't used it, he'd used his hands. Oh, so debonair and sophisticated........
Now I'm all showered and clean and fighting a dirty fight with Blogger over formatting issues (no, no, I want the picture to go there! Why do you keep changing the font? You bastard! What did you delete that for?!?). Sigh. I'm obviously not nerdy enough.**
Tonight, while Himself saves Pendle Hill from vampires, I'm going to attempt something that was supposed to have been completed 3 years ago - I'm going to sew some of my tent. Well, that's the plan, anyway. I'll have to get back to you as to whether I've been successful in my mission......

**maybe not, but nerdy enough to know the chemical composition of iron oxide........
