Sure does feel like I am playing hookie since taking a mesquite thorn in my knee. I have found new respect for the mesquite tree. I knew they could have attitude, guess I didn't realize how much.
I very much appreciate Dr. Luecke and Kathy Duncan for coming into the office on their day off to extract my pet from my knee. Thank you very much!!!! This was done last Friday morning. It has taken until Christmas morning for the swelling in my leg to go down. Those thorns do pack a punch.
With luck in the future I will be more aware of where I put my extremities.
Luckily it has not been the best gardening weather, so it has been "easier" to cool my jets.
Last week is the week that I usually sow my second plantings of peas. Needless to say this did not happen. I set the peas to soak Saturday and yesterday I started germinating them. With luck they will be in the ground by Thursday. My first sowing does not appear to be as good of a take as I would like but it should yield a decent crop. Hopefully this second sowing will do better. It was such a warm fall until the snow. Peas don't like hot.
With luck the first peas will be harvested the end of February. Snow peas have got to be one of my favorite veggies.
Yes there will be a veggie harvest this week!!!
Merry Christmas to one and all!!!!
