"R" Lot Adventures

Saturday, May 30, 2009

Freth Commented that I had tried to grow my pepers in plastic. I guess it might look that way. In actual fact the black plastic is a cover that I put over the EARTHBOX container that is my garden since my man would rather I not dig up the grass.. The black plastic is suppose to help keep weeds out and heat in making the plants all nice and toasty. It is reversible and has a white side on the flip side if you live in Florida or somewhere like that... They have little diagrams that tell me how many of each kind of plant I should be able to grow in one container. I don't know if it is wonderful, I just know it is what I have to work with right now.. I have 63 corn plants in 4 of these containers and the peas are finally ripening...

Family Status

Bruce has moved to a new area, Denton, TX. He loves that it is a college town. Spencer has been dropped off for his one semester college experience at BYU - Provo. He is excited to go to classes and learn to feed himself. He seems to be taking care of himself just fine, Within an hour of being back in his apartment he had his router set up and was getting internet on his computer. The older girls have started school and are doing well. It was exhausting, but the Show choir and Ballroom performance on the first day went well for the senior. The Senior and Sophmore have survived 2 days so far. The 7th grader did very well adjusting to lockers and middle school. She didn't get lost, and it only took 10 tries at the end of the day to get her locker open! We walked the 5th grader to her class the first day and she thinks her teacher is fantastic! Still waiting for Kindergarten assignments so we will know who Holly's teacher is. She starts a week after everyone else. I am sort of in mourning after sending off the college boy. He also has finished both of his interviews and submitted his paperwork to be called on a mission . Excited to see where he will be called!
