Why we always gotta spike when I’m trying to DCA on payday?

More work on the greenhouse to clear my mind. The roof came off easier than I expected. Everything is braced and feeling sturdy. View quoted note →

We harvested this #Daikon Radish at over 2lbs! The #chickens couldn’t resist so we decided to give them a fresh snack during this cold streak. #permies #garden

A tough note with a heavy heart. We’ve decided it’s time to put down my best friend of the last 14 years. Ruger has been on so many adventures with me. He’s been there to watch me get married, have children, go through many trials and tribulations. No matter what rain or shine, he’s been by my side to always show his loyalty and comfort. This is by far the smartest dog I’ve ever trained. Of course he knew all the basic commands, sit, stay, lay, shake, hi five and come. He had a Facebook page where he displayed all his fashionable hats and outfits. He shined when he would also stay while a treat was placed on his nose, play detective scooby doo as I’d hide his treats in another room and have him sniff them out. He says “Ri Rove Ruuu!!” Which I’ll always remember until the day I get to meet him again. I took him on a walk today to find his resting place. We found the perfect spot next to his favorite creek under a couple old growth oak trees. In the evening the sun hits this spot just right and looks magical. Something was telling us that was the spot for him. As I dug his grave, I was flooded with all the great memories we’ve had throughout the years. Ironically, at one point I had to stop and collect myself. Ruger walked right up to me and hobbled down in the hole. I think he was telling me that was the perfect spot for him to rest. We have a couple days left with him until his vet appointment this Thursday. Boy will he be spoiled by us all during his last days. This note is for you RuRu. I love you boy. Rest in Peace

Here’s the crappy little #birdhouse my brother and I made late last night while #stoned out of our minds 🤯🤣 Waiting to see if any birds out there are looking for a fixer upper. #grownostr

I was able to get some more work done on the shed to #greenhouse project. Leveled the whole thing. Took off more of the siding (this is a very laborious process). Replaced some of the rotted wood framing. Discovered that whoever built this thing had about as much carpentry skills as I do.. (not many lol) Luckily my neighbor came over and advised on a few thing to sturdy it up… (cross bracing if you’re curious). It got dark on me but we’re getting it done a little at a time and enjoying the challenge. #grownostr #proofofwork View quoted note →

Hard to get stuff done when there’s snow and mud. We chose to #play on the quad and do some more sledding. I did take some cuttings from the Arp Rosemary and the Creeping Thyme for #propagation #workhardplayhard #grownostr
