My Place

My Place

Hi guys,

I just wanted to have a thread where I could talk about things that make me happy without bothering anyone else.

So on Sunday a week ago I planted some seeds into a metal tub. Some veggie seeds. Carrots, garlic chives and although it’s not the season for it I threw in some cucumber seeds.

Well yesterday, only a week after planting I noticed my first little green shoot. Then today, there are a bunch of green shoots. Funnily enough I think it’s the cucumbers that have come up first. I may have to make a cloche to help them grow in the cooler weather. The tub is sitting on a concrete path so hopefully that will help keep the soil a bit warmer. I moved them a bit more into the sunshine today as we noticed that the carport was casting shade on them quite early in the afternoon.

I am so happy to see their green little faces pushing up from under that dark earth. Gives me hope in all things. I love to watch things grow. It makes me happy to think that I have played a part in that.

Every day I water them and have a chat with them. How are you today my seeds? I hope that you will grow soon! Now I can encourage them to grow bigger and stronger.

I can’t wait to set up my other veggie garden and grow more things. I am especially looking forward to planting my tomatoes come spring.

Re: My Place

Na mate .. I dont keep secrets from you. Well. The book keeper. Thats a whole book in its self.

Yesss I Loved the Wild Austrian mistress from day one. But . . . theres always a. . . . but

She's normal and I'm . . . well nuts . . got in trouble for calling myself that once before from

Uncle Sane. . . but I dont know how else to put it. I play up all day long. Banter and pranks

and wear her out till she's in hot pursuit with what ever kitchen utensil is handiest. and she some times pays out on me in Austrian. . . But my very best little poems always manage to save me.

Her Husband the butcher in town, Wooo. Differences, He wasn't treating her right, and when I came back

from Sydney one day. She had moved in. It gave me a warm feeling that she trusted me like that.

Lucky for me I'm a whole lot bigger than the butcher, any way we actually get on well now. He found some other young filly to make mistakes with.

Yes its a regular country town. Gossip. mistrust, scandal n deciet. Your average nightmare..,

So, she makes approaches, . . . then withdraws . Shared blanket down the river, then next day I'm in the bad books for god knows what, she know I'm Autistic, so I really don't have a clue where this trains headed. I do know this much. She has a big soft spot for me. Its a seed that broken through stony ground, found light, and I guess I have to learn to feed it right so it grows good n strong. . .

She catches spiders and such critters and frees them unharmed too. That is all I need to know about her.

Ute has to stay white, But will try to get my computer guy to send you a pic when the tray is done.

Mate . . . plus the new one.. Your hubby is an inspiration. Covid shot. . . good girl.. what movie did you see.

I better bail. but will call in for a feed tomorrow night @Oaktree .

Big hug to you too my dear friend. Your an inspiration too, tonys moonbase one.

Hi @tonys

Sorry I forgot to put out a menu yesterday. That covid shot kicked my butt. Been feeling a bit rubbish the last day or two.

Been meaning to respond to you about the book keeper. It’s really cute that you are crushing on each other. Perhaps it’s a spark that will eventually ignite. My hubby is normal and I am crazy and it has worked out fine for the past 30 years.

I am so sad today!
Sophia1 has made the decision to close her profile. I hate it when people leave. It leaves a hole in my heart. I guess she has her reasons. I hope that if she starts a new profile that we will somehow realise that it’s her. Maybe she is scared that she has shared too much and wants to go back?

Anyway I will really miss her.
