Daily Goals - Wednesday, August 6th, 2014

      Good morning. Up early making smoothie for Hubby to take to work. Apparently, we have ants in the sink! I'm so fustrated. I can't stand ants. They decided to go after the dishes in the sink. Hopefully, they will see nothing in the sink and move on. 

Mmmm I loving fresh Peaches
Today's Goals 
  1. Work- I work today from 8am-6pm. We have a busy day planned! 
  2. Gardening - I want to weed the rest of the Garden Box 3. 
  3. Gardening - try to figure out my mothers password for the seed company. Only she would forget it. 
  4. Shopping - my best friends wants me to bring veggies to her wedding. So I have to stop and buy at the fruit stand. 
  5. Wedding Wensday - look for information on the catering place that I liked. I know I put it in a notebook but I can't find it. 
Yesterday's Goals
  1. Work- I work from 8am-6pm. ~ I got done on time. It was nice.
  2. Personal Goal - write and post my 10 Goals this week. ~ I didn't get to this.
  3. Workout- get an abs workout it into even if it's 5 minutes. I need to get something in. ~ I didn't feel like doing this yesterday, luckily I ask hubby to push me to get it done. He did so I did it!
  4. Gardening- I get to look at my seed catalog again!!! I know sounds crazy. My mom said if I want seeds for Christmas to give her my list, that way I can get more because they are on sale!! ~ I picked out the seeds I want. Now I have to send her a wish list.
  5. Gardening- finish up weeding garden box 3 so I can plant my peas!! I can't wait! ~ Nope didn't get to this. I was in a lazy mode last night.

Gardening ~ 12 Week After the Last Frost 2014 ~ Garden Bed 4


Garden Bed 4 ~ finished and ready for planting
      I start this week with my biggest Gardening ~12 Week After the Last Frost - Weekly Goals my Garden Box 4. I'm going to plan fall crop in this garden bed. This gardening box is going to be half broccoli and half cauliflower. 

What it Looked like before I finishes it

     I started on this bed on Thursday morning. It was over grown and empty. I never got around to planting my wheat in it. My spring and summer were super busy this year. Luckily I will be able to plant Fall crops and get more out of my area

Bye- Bye weeds

     I took the time to weed it. Then I handed tilled it. The bunnies love when I leave the garden! All the weeds go to them. 

Rabbit Dropping to help fertilize the bed

     I do though make out the best because then I use their droppings as fertilizer. Because the grass and weeds are now rabbit droppings, it is easier to finalize the garden bed with them. I am not waiting for the grass to decompose I just letting the water wash the little pellets into fertilize. 

Top soil to add some rich soil to the box
     After watching and finalizing my garden beds I always had a bag of topsoil. I do this to replace any dirt that has been washed away or pulled away when I'm weeding. Plus it adds rich dark soil to my garden bed. 

     I completed my gardening weekly goal of garden box four. I read it fertilize and got the bed ready for planting! 

     How's your garden coming? Do you have any gardening goals for this week?
