April 2020

Let me start by wishing my other half a joyous 50th Birthday!!! It was yesterday and the weather was absolutely gorgeous! We were able to be outside in the yard. I got a few things setup for the warmer weather. The deck is cleaned off and all the warm weather furniture is out now. I planted cool weather plants. Radishes, green onions, peas, salad mix, spinach, arugula, & swiss chard. Then of course it rained, hailed and even snowed a bit last night! The joys of Spring!

We like most of you are in a state of quarantine. We are limiting our outings and if it is necessary I am the only one going into the store. We are getting out in the neighborhood and walking as much as his body will let us. I have been trying to keep busy with crocheting, starting seeds inside, cooking (400 times in the last 30 days), working in the yard.


I'm sorry I am jumping around in this post. It's just the way my brain is working today. Like I need to get it all down on paper before I forget.

I ordered seed potatoes, onions, 2 different honey berry bushes for the yard, also have 5 pepper plants coming as well.. I have a dwarf banana, orange, lemon, and lime coming for the house. We are super excited about these. I have roma's and black sea tomatoes started, Then I have red and Hungarian sweet started, corn, beans, peas, squash, pumpkins and lots more. The only reason I ordered the pepper plants was because the seed peppers still hadn't started to germinate in the house so I thought I was out of luck. So I ordered. Then a few days later I started to see sprouts. It's fine any extra I have I will share with family and friends.

I have also been trying to keep busy with my candle company.  It gives me the freedom to be available to my other half as he needs me. With the social distancing that is in place right now, sales have slowed. But I am not counting out coming back stronger when this is all over. If you interested in checking it out you can by going to My Penny Jar, I have over 40 scents of candles and melts!


Smile Loudly,

Yart
