My ski this morning. The snow not superb but I still enjoy moving along and the fresh crisp air. I’m trying the Farrah Fawcett hairdo again. Hoping to retain yesterday’s pin curls by not squashing them flat with a toque and sweat. Good outcome after. Oh happy day.So how is the greenhouse growing? It’s not with shorter days and not too many sunny days it is not heating up. The greens are still alive. We’ve taken down the tomatoes and bitter melon. I’ve taken 3 tomato slips and rioted them , just for fun. Will pot them up soon to see how they do.Finally shortened some pj pants. Got tired of rolling them up or stepping on them. Sometimes when desperate I just cut and not bother hemming. But I did the whole nine yards on these.I can hear Burton Cummings singing Stand Tall to my cucumber plants. They’re getting new leaves. I was expecting them to flop over but here they are. Next are my mom’s one and my 2 bougainvilleas all squished into one pot. I gave them a dose of lactobacillus bacteria (LAB) and sprayed the foliage to see if it would help turn the yellowish rusty one back to green. I gave my garbage and kitchen compost container a few sprays, too. Helped in cutting down the odour. This LAB is a bit exciting for me. 😂A cold November morning Nothing like our Sunday breakfast of sourdough pancakes, bacon and eggs to warm up.Saturday morning ski. Finally tried out all my new stuff! No wax skis and boots that gave my bad ankle good support. I fell down right away of course. Forgot how to get up without taking skis off. At least getting them on and off is not a struggle like my vintage skis. I will never be a great or fast skier ⛷ but I love the sport. My second fall I could get up with skis on. With my new snow pants no one will know I had fallen unless they saw me. The snow does not cling to it.Getting ready to put the greenhouse to sleep. Harvested all the tomatoes and tiny bitter melons and leaves to dry for tea. We ate the last cucumber a few days ago. The nights are getting colder. Not worth it to heat. Will let the greens struggle on their own with a blanket or two.#chillinGot my snow pants shortened. Was rather a strenuous job. Had to take zippers on pant legs off first. Then working with all the layers. The elastic on the cuffs was the hardest. Had to use all my limbs and my tongue sewing them on. You know if you don’t hold your tongue just right, you can screw up big time. Now I have to do some stretching myself out.Someone said if you have some light you can get cucumbers to eat by Christmas. I believed her and got these 2 babes started. I don’t think there’ll be cukes at Xmas. What was I thinking? 😂Instagram

MAKING LIFE WORK
I like to say that I am relaxed and focused BUT I am not. The harder and more I tried, the worse I feel. Logic would say I should stop trying so hard and just relax. Sounds easy but it … Continue reading
