That's a good hand for odometer poker
What did you accomplish today?
- Thread starter 420God
- Start date
Not been so good over the last two weeks, is why I ain't been online, but at least one thing is going right.
The White Haze Auto, now 31 days old, under 12/12 thanks to another plant which needed flipped, now looks like this.
There's been no training, apart from nipping off lower leaves that don't get any real light and a bit of tucking, she's been left as nature intended. So as long as I don't kill her I'm hoping for at least an ounce, which, given my record so far, will be a good result and a base to "perfect" the technique before investing in better lighting.
Oh, and the Snow White looks like she's flowering nicely, albeit slower than the above. Considering she should be dead thanks to potting compost that was WAY to hot then getting anything off her is a bonus.
So even though I'm totally Fubard just now with the sort of crippling back pain I'm sure various people can identify with, there's still a silver lining every time I look in the grow room and see my little babies growing and ripening at what I think is a reasonable pace, gives me that good feeling that can make the difference between struggling on or just giving up, and when there's hope, no matter what that hope is, then it gives you that valuable little edge to say "Fuck you, I will NOT give in".
Hope y'all doing better than me, for I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Finished and planted my mound garden- Tomatoes, basil, strawberries and 2 types of asparagus. Cleared a 30x30 area of bramble, managed to tear my hands apart on the damn thorns, then i got my Turkey fig tree planted, my Chicago hardy fig didn't make it through the winter 
. Today ill be back filling around the fig and planting a blueberry bush and some Lupine, them I'm done with planting..WOOHOO! All in before memorial day for once.
These are Lupine. It's an edible, perennial, legume. I'm mainly planting them to attract pollinators, but I'll probably try eating them.

Elbow surgery scheduled for 5/29
Could always be worse, guess I won't be getting done nearly as much as I hoped this summer but at least I have a great excuse as to why my golf game doesn't improve! 
Sorry about that. I hope you heal quickly.Elbow surgery scheduled for 5/29
Please either adopt or marry me. I need to walk the dogs and mow the lawn (about 3 days late).

My elderly mother broke the ball off that goes in the shoulder last summer. It required a plate and pins.Elbow surgery scheduled for 5/29
It took her a few months to heal and go through rehab.
Find a good Ortho and if you are younger you should be good to go a 2-3 months hopefully.

Raw like that?
I don't think I could handle that without being cooked into something. At least melted on bread with a ton of garlic.

This house had a yard like that for close to 15 years. I figure if I'm putting in that much work, i might as well get something for it. So for about 5 years now, I've been adding more and more garden plots every year. I figure another 3 years or so and I'll only have grass in the walkways between garden beds and 30ft , or so, around the house. Just enough for compost and mulch. Taking cars of these gardens has been way less effort than mowing ever was and I have a ride on mower.

Yea. It's not that bad. I clarify it.
It goes better in coffee or cookies.
I've had a rough couple weeks. Said screw it and ate a big spoon.

To be honest, things have just been getting weirder.
Good news is the car seems to finally be stable and for that I am eternally thankful. It made all the difference in my life.
Other things are...I dunno, not great. But that’s neither here nor there...nothing that can’t be addressed by completely restructuring my life in every way
