getting ready to sit back in my recliner and watch Avengers
too tired to turk

I always watch a big movie like that first from my desk to see if it's any good, then if it's good, I'll go to the theaters.... I saw End Game yesterday from my desk.... and when the crowds in the theaters die down, (hopefully by next week) I'll go watch in the theaters.... I have a thing about really crowded theaters.

Inquisit. Lots of surveys use it. It's safe.

This morning is the local pet store's big festival. A ton of good vendors, games, prizes, etc. Generally, an absurd amount of free stuff. Last year I got like 70 free samples of various things -- treats, chews, foods. I go to the booths of the foods I used and talk em up, they will usually grab a full size of something for me from under the table.

crazy that an hour ago it was 5am and 57 deg! It doesn't seem that long ago that it would be a nice winter day if you reached 57 deg for a daytime high.

on the way to the mid 80's. Need to get that swamp cooler AC turned on as I think winter is done here (but still has business to do in the midwest today, apparently.

TV has a lot of reviews in the past few hours that a video in it is broken

my kale has been in the garden for a week

my kale has been in the garden for a week

My tomatos and green chile peppers are inside (waiting for me to put them outside) and I've killed two watermelons inside (they germinated and the center stem tall and then flopped over and kinked their stem before I put in a support stick for the stem). I'm probably going to directly plant watermelon seeds outside today since it will be a nice day and then I'll have to support them when I see them pop up so they don't flop over and die again.

Sigh I woke up to another rejection. I think i'm gonna go back to bed

I'm doing a work-share at a CSA this year to hopefully learn how to plant more stuff. I can grow simple things - and I have tons of things indoors (I like houseplants that I grow from seed - just starting a coffee plant!). But outdoors I've been pretty bad at it. I have so much space in my lower field - at least an acre I think - to plant. I might divide it and put in fruit trees on the lower half (I already have an apple and peach tree) and then use the top half for veggies.

But I have to learn a lot more to be successful

When I lived in Kansas, I grew all my stuff in 5 gallon buckets so I could move them into warmth if needed during the spring. I grew my watermelons in 5 gallon buckets and used panty hose tied to a pvc frame to support the melons once they started to grow. the best thing about the panty hose method is that I NEVER had one side of the melon white from lack on sun.

I actually have a stack of old dog food bags, that I've considered using for mobile outdoor planters.
My biggest problem isn't the sun/weather (though it should be). It's the animals.

Morning turkeys!

Warning, warning! Recall a time!
My father's father grew watermelons by the Texas field full. Once when we were visiting--I was about 5--he was all excited. He kept calling me to come see what he had. I follow him 'round the side of his old wood frame house. Where he stoops down(he was quite elderly by then) and leans underneath the house, pulling this huge round black watermelon outta the shade. No cold place, only a cooler shaded area. This melon was so big, he could hardly lift it. Said he's kept it aside 'specially for me. Cuts the thing on an unpainted wooden porch--you know the kind, all scuffed and scarred and maybe was once painted. Inside it was a gorgeous bright orange. And unbelievably sweet. My Dad said his father hybridized the melons. Inventing several fine varieties. Like what, I now understand, must have been a Stone Mountain variety. But I've never seen any melon like that one he had saved for his only grand daughter on that hot summer west Texas day so long ago.
