I think I’m starting to drive my husband crazy, lol. Now that I have a greenhouse, I want to fill it up with plants. With prices of rice going through the roof, I decided it might be a good idea to grow a starch for us, so I picked yellow yukon potatoes to grow. I’ll have a row outside the greenhouse of these delicious veggies, and they are supposed to mature in only 77 days, so potatoes will be ready soon YUM!

I also picked up seeds for a purple bell pepper. I’ve never seen them in the store, but the reviews sound good, and they seem to be very prolific as far as production, so I’m pretty happy on that.

Working on another new site for women too while seed shopping, so I’ll be putting a post up in the next day or so with links for that.

Well my husband and I were getting ready to do some gravel hauling when he had to replace a part on our garden tractor. I decided to get out the weed wacker, and trim under our mesquite trees in the front yard.

Now these trees have branches that are fairly low, so I was bent over going under the trees. I was practing safe weed wacking…had my safety goggles on over my glasses.

All of a sudden it felt like a cat jumped out of the tree, stuck all its claws into my scalp and hung on for dear life. I screamed, and started yelling “get it off me” at the top of my lungs.

MadHatter came running out of the garage, vaulted a rather large bush, and found me on the ground screaming and it appeard I was studying the motor of the weed eater REAL close.

As he came around he found the motor had sucked my hair into it, and was wrapped around the impellor. He had to go get sissors from the house to cut me loose.

So I went this evening and got my hair cut and now it is mid back and shoulder length in layers instead of down to my butt. It looks a lot healthier I admit, but I do miss the long hair.

So If you have long hair, and are going to use a weed eater…my advice is put your hair in a bun before you do because getting your hair cut by a weed wacker is no fun.

I have been working on and off on a greenhouse now for a year, and my husband and I FINALLY got the it up and running. Whoo hoo! It has been a LOT of work, but being a vegetarian, I'm looking forward to growning a lot of my own veggies.
