Distracted

January 25, 2022

Here’s another reason why the photos, as well as the garden, have been neglected a little lately. (I’ve also been driven inside by the relentless heat.)

This was the result of my daughter tempting me to ‘try it’ in the music shop. I bonded immediately. It just feels good. And it sounds amazing. Looks kinda strange, for a uke. It’s deliberately made by Fender to resemble their guitar. Plugs into the amp too. My finger tips on my left hand are past painful, now numb. I left it in the shop for a few hours. But, it drew me back and it came home with me.

I’d love to boast about my green thumb, but the pics tell a different story. I’ve already admitted that I have been neglecting my plants lately, but they’ve really suffered at the expense of the heat and me spending time off-farm. From my glasshouse… Iove the colours but me thinks it doesn’t bode well.

Cactus confusion..

Surviving

It’s been very hot and I’ve been busy with my new shop and renovating the building attached to it. So, my glasshouse has been neglected. It’s on automatic watering, but not automatic weeding and tending. Here’s a survivor or two. I love the variation in the leaf colours.
