No roosters inside city limits?
I'd be waking the roosters up here if we had any. LOL. I can sleep later if I want...I just have to stay up/wait to take my pill. It's a 6 hour ride...and maybe a bit more now that my body has remembered how to sleep. If I take it too early in the evening...I'll see all sorts of early morning hours on the clock most folks don't see.

If you're rural you know the limitations of the overall "shopping experience". Very few stores with very little inventory...always @ full retail price or more. If it wasn't for my slight/minimal skill in making something work from nothing most of the time...I'd come up empty handed every trip.

Thus...Amazon gets more of my biz than they should. I hate going to town/shopping as it is...and when ya don't have inventory time and time again or say "we can order that for you"... I just pass from there on out cus I can do the same thing. Duh. It has to be an emergency anymore for me to go search for what they don't seem to have. If I have a few days to burn/it isn't a dire emergency I just order and wait to do the task til the goods show up.
Where I live now, I'm 5 min away from Home Depot, Walmart, etc. I have lived places where it was a real expedition to get any kind of store bought stuff. Sucks.

Greetings all I've been away.
I'm probably an expert on insomnia, I was sleep deprived for over 25 years. I made life changing decisions trying to escape the misery I was feeling. Turns out I had sleep apnea. I use a CPAP now and while it's annoying as hell I sleep pretty good and no longer pack up my family and move across country at the drop of a hat.

Installed a new cover for my early lettuce bed. No more squirrels and rabbits. I can throw a furniture pad on top for a redneck coldframe.View attachment 5369298
that's nice set up! we're cobbling together old bits and bobs of lumber, roofing, pvc to build new beds this year. i did 4 years of raised, then in 2020 decided to tear it all out and go with inground rows. this year i'm back to raised beds.
my garlic grew 6", got zapped by the freeze, and are now making a second push. it's always my favorite thing to grow.

You can't stop garlic! I started replacing my old rotting raised beds a couple years ago. Getting older personally is the impetus for that! This year I have plans for one more bed to complete my scheme and I'm sowing all my paths with prostrate herb varieties. I'll be boring everyone here with my projects as always!
