Well, it finally dried up enough outside

We used to have a strawberry patch. One year we had ducks and they ate all of the strawberries! That was fustrating!

It certainly sounds like you are a very busy woman. I used to have a really big garden when we lived at our last home but I don't have good soil where I live now. I think that my husband is going to fix me a raised bed and set it up closeby. Then I can just go out and work when it's convient for me and raise a little bit to eat. I miss having fresh food from the garden!

I wish that I lived close enough to go to the flea market with you!! I love flea markets!!! There's several that I go to but I have to drive some distance to get to some of them. Have fun!!!

Fresh grown strawberries are so delicious! Good luck with the gardening and all.

So yorkies go after birds? I was wondering about that because I just got 2 parakeets.

I love going and picking strawberries!! That is one thing that I miss about "back home". We had a HUGE strawberry patch about 5 miles from the house. So we use to go pick them all the time when they were in season. We slice them and put sugar on them or cover them in chocolate!

I still haven't finished weeding the wheat! And now we've had more rain and more is expected. Yes, if Lucy could get to the chicks she would kill them. She found a mouse a few days ago while I was walking them and I didn't think I'd ever get it out of her mouth! She growled at me! She also tries to run after the roosters who are much taller than she. They Yorkies are always leashed so she will never get them, haha. Parakeets are so cute. I had one when I was young. He was very tame. Are yours? Maybe you'll have babies!
