It's been a very rough week. Some days are just trying to do something to stay busy, others are tough as h-e-double hockey sticks.
I hadn't washed dishes since last Friday, so we are taking turns on the rounds to catch up. Movement helps.
Project supplies arrived, so there is more that can keep me occupied, other than the garden. The chicken coop needs mucked as well.
Black beans are finally climbing and the blossoms are on. We got rain, but not enough. Just enough to give them a dose of goodness. Many people who are watering with city water are losing their gardens in this drought.
On another note, I have been trying to order a replacement part for my sauce maker since last fall. I pulled up their site, and it's still out of stock. I emailed them, and guess what? They asked for my address and shipped me one FREE! How awesome is that?
My side bar bible verse has been changed. It's our daughter's boyfriend's favorite verse.
Despite the drought, and with diligent watering, my tomatoes look good. So good, we needed to buy more tomato stakes, as some stakes were broken and shorter. I needed 25 new stakes and could only find 17, so we'll just do with what we have and deal with it.
It's everything under the ground I'm worried about right now.
Another raccoon tore another hole in my coop and this time killed a hen. I'm so mad right now. I re-set the trap. Please pray I can summon the energy and time to build my new coop and right away. I wish I could have a coop building party and feed the crew, but family hasn't been around at all. The boys are adding an addition to one of their houses too, and are pretty busy.

Picked another round of beans - almost 2#
