I felt a little better over the weekend. Water pills are helping the BP a bit and fixed the sausage fingers.

Nephew Stephen came over yesterday with his GF Kristin and helped me out with the victory garden. They got a good bit of weeding done, set out a flat of pepper plants, and seeded a row of green beans.

Mrs. Augie got her pumpkins seeded Saturday afternoon while I was hanging trellis mesh, then she took me out to the pub for a birthday burger.

I got some work out of the old girl on Mother's Day. LOL

We got 93 tomato plants in the ground yesterday. Better Boy, Brandywine, and JetSetter. If it's not deluging when I get off work today I'll start on the 2nd row. Cherokee Purple, Black Krim, and JetSetter are going in that one.

Holy cats. That’s a lot of maters. What will you do with them? You’ve got a really nice setup!

Hubby loves the Cherokee Purples. Also something called ‘Large Barred Boar’ that we tried last year.

I will try to set out 25-30 eggplants and peppers today. If it doesn’t deluge.

And try to seed my winter squash (long of naples, Rumbo, Black Futsu) and plant a few beans (string beans and the long Asian beans).
