Still No Till Ground

A lot of NO's in my opinion. DH decided not to have chicken this year because the fencing are not up. He don't want to put it up because his lawn mower is broken, however, he is not doing anything to fix it.

Plus, every weekend we seems to go to my inlaws house to clean and pick-up things that are not garbage. My big kitchen can never be finish because the spackle is not on the walls yet. FIL kept on insisting that one of his granddaughter will be able to do it. I can do it too, but with all the work around the house and cooking for everyone, it seems impossible. I hate being bother in the middle of work.

That granddaughter is no where to be found, well we know where she lives, but, she never answer her phone. So, I count it as a loss. They only come around when they needed something. It doesn't matter if their family needed something.

And being still cold in my area, I cannot get myself to go outside and start my vegetable garden. I need to flip the soil in chunks first, before DH can till it. So, until then my potatoes will be dying soon. Ah, life. It's easier to do other things than doing what I am supposed to be doing.

A Very Nice Day

A real feel of 17.22° C or 63° F (for me). DH and I did a lot today. I picked the sticks/branches around the yard and put them in the pile. I lit them up but since this is the very first nice day, (they are still wet) they burn very slow.

DH fixed his zero turn lawn mower and was able to cut the acre lot in-front of our house. When he moved to the acre yard where I wanted to put my vegetable garden, (he cut about more than 1/4) the mower broke again.

Now he's outside using the other lawn mower to pull the other back closer to the house. Poor DH, more work for him.

Oh yea, the ground is still frozen.
