Here is an Armenian cucumber. This one is about a foot long. As you can see, something is eating the leaves. I adjusted the fence a little in hopes that I can keep the rabbits out. We shall see.
I have had very little luck with my garden this year. I guess I am learning all the things I don't know about gardening. With the end of summer, and the Autumnal Equinox this week, it makes me a little tired of gardening for a while.
I know by January, I will be chomping at the bit to get back in the dirt...planting. Growing. Trying to figure out how to make it a bigger, better garden. I think preparation and planning is the key.
So...I will be amending soil and fencing off the new beds. Getting ready for the Spring planting. I sure wish I could plant in the acre next door. The County has been tilling the soil for weed control. It just needs some manure. AND...permission. A Girl can dream!
So...I have resorted to buying my zucchini for my zucchini bread. Is that sad...or what? I planted zucchini three times this year. I gave it a valiant effort. That is all anyone can ever do...their best.
AND...not give up. Quitting is not an option for me. I just can't.
Today, I was thinking...the anniversary for my web-site is coming up the first weekend in October. A whole year. It is a milestone. One I am proud of. A lot of effort and heart has gone into this place. Of course, that is how I do everything. With my heart. Fitting for a Gal who's birthday is Valentines Day. I have always led with my heart.
Just so everyone knows...I am feeling much better. I believe that I had an allergy to something blooming around here, and that was a big problem. I also believe that the Cipro antibiotics, were very hard on my body. Once I finished taking them...I felt better. But not while I was taking them. I am still a little tired...so I am resting, and not pushing myself so hard. Plus...BFF chewed me out and told me I needed to rest more...so I did. She knows how I am.
