We split hostas a while back and added them to the troublesome rose bed. These are very large hostas and will crowd out the grass, but we have much more work to do on it. Hopefully, I'll be back with a good update.
Yesterday I planted 23 sweet potato slips, but the rain returned and the garden is swamped. I could only plant from the edge. More rain fell last night and I am so sad that it may be another year of battling the rain.
We now realize how important a greenhouse is. It may go to the top of the list if the rain continues.
On a good note, the plants have had 4 days of hardening, and we pray next weeks (predicted the entire week ahead) is wrong.

Everything but the "to-do" list
It was breakfast for dinner.
Biscuits were baked for sausage gravy, scrambled farm fresh eggs (thank you chickens), and fried potatoes. I forgot to see if I had enough apples for fried apples though.
I finally felt like crafting after I cleaned up some rooms around the house. Got the last two of these painted with white paint. More work needs done to finish them.
I think I did everything that was not on my to-do list this week, so I need to get back on track ha ha!
