So we've been busy here in the Bubbledom, digging up overgrown flower beds, widening other beds for vegetables, and basically getting the yard cleaned up so we can use it.
The beds in the front yard have been planted with packs of wildflowers, and the other random bed in the middle of the front lawn has been seeded with grass seed. I know, not very homesteader like, but we just moved into the place, and it's a rental, so we have to take things slowly here in regards to taking over the property with the way we'd rather have it. Savannah has also added some hanging pots with Geraniums up on the front steps, which make the place look a little more cheery too.
The back yard has had our composter added to it, the rain barrel moved behind the shed (although the downspout hasn't been completely moved yet, which caused a small basement flood one day), and the bed behind the shed (hey, I'm a poet, and don't know it) has been widened to at least twice what it was. We also planted a raspberry bush down near the back of the yard, and a rhubarb plant up closed to the house. In one of the planters that was left behind I've discovered that it's been planted with chives, so we now have fresh chives in a pot out back.
On the downside of the Bubbledom, the upstairs washroom floor is soggy, and we're patiently waiting for it to dry out so we can fix it up. That and we're still getting organized and unpacked from moving here last February, so we're always busy busy busy!
On a side note, the site will be going through some changes in the next little while, please bear with me as i get everything sorted out.
End transmission...
