Good morning all! Cool morning here this morning at 42F ... it’s not going to warm too much during the day and then drop to 37F tonight.. I don’t like it!!! I’m going to put a pork sirloin roast in the crockpot for a hot fare tonight.. Maybe I will get Pickles new yard back in order in between the home schooling lessons and my work web meetings... I think I need a better attitude today ... Hope everyone has a great day.

Awww, I am sure it is going to be an awesome day for you today.

In Michigan, essential to life stores are open, but our governor thinks seeds are not essential to life, and you can't buy seeds or any plants right now, because seeds, and plants are not essential to life, , lol, but you can buy all the alcohol you want, because those stores are open and consider essential to life,

Here in SA, You are not allowed to buy alcohol or cigarettes, as the government has declared them as not being essential.

Dam, sounds like alot of angered and irritated people there, lol, but at least it's not, plants,

I bought a bunch of small plants to decorate indoor enclosures online a few days ago and it was delivered yesterday.

We could most probably order seeds online, but they won't be delivered until the lock down has been lifted. As they are not regarded as being essential. I tried buying a paint brush yesterday but the store wouldn't sell it to me, they told me if I wanted to get one, I would need to go to the police station and get an affidavit to get permission for the store to sell me a paint brush. It is not essential. I told them that actually it was, as it was keeping me from going out of my mind being stuck at home. LOL ?

LOL, They are pots for plants which I made out of old continental pillow cases and an old curtain which I was going to throw away. You dip them into a cement mixture and then drape it over something like a bucket or whatever you have to make the shape that you want. It dries in that shape. Then I made some more cement mixture slightly runnier and then painted on both the outside and inside to make it stronger. and then I painted them. When I get time I will put the plants that I want in them and post a completed picture.

Nice. What kind of cement? It looks like a fun project. We've made garden stones in foil baking pans. I've also seen directions for bird baths using the large sunflower leaves and sand for molding. Just digging.

[Cathie G]

Nagh...this was an old, rotten, junky, punky water logged limb. It might never decompose...on it’s own!

Ok then fire starter when it dries out...

 

[CarolM]

My new word

Lol. Ok, I thought it was quite a common word. Must be common over here. Although it may be old fashioned as well.

 

[Chubbs the tegu]

Im probably pronouncing it totally wrong

Was out in the garden mucking about, cut yesterday’s log up & we are burning it. While doing other misc cleaning, lifted an old piece of plywood that had been on the ground for some time. Cute little snake underneath...
