Well, on Monday, June 23, I planted my potatoes, and on Wednesday night, after recuperating from a migraine, I planted the corn and peas with Donovan. A little late, to be sure, ...more like a month late! But with Oma's passing and the distractions that this brought, we got a little behind.
My pond pump has finally bit the dust. I bought the kit from Zellers for Ken's Father's Day gift 4 years ago, and have left it in the pond every year since! However, this spring I couldn't find the filter that keeps the pond gunk from entering the motor and it didn't last long. So, I guess i'll have to get a new one of those, since Ken really likes the waterfall.
I had a pleasant surprise on Wednesday, not gardening-related, but kid-related. I had sustained a muscle cramp in my neck on Tuesday, (that was probably gardening related--I'm always lifting things I shouldn't!) and woke up with a wicked migraine on Wednesday. I went back to bed, dreading what the house would look like when I finally got up, but surprise! The boys had taken it upon themselves to clean up both the kitchen and livingroom. They're not for sale anymore:)
