Sunday I spent the day in the garden and soaked in the blow up spa. It was hot, but the water cooled me down. I have built back my tan too. I knew a guy one who absolutely loved tan lines ;-)

So far no one has breached Alcatraz and now other plants have been eaten...yet. I still have a few more to plant.

The blue berries are coming along. Right now it is just a snack thing as there are not enough rite on any day to make a recipe out of.

I found an on line clay class that teaches you how to make clay beads out of mid range fired clay. This s a perfect thing for me to start with. I want to move away from low fire because when I friend decides to not do ceramics anymore I am done with that too. But I have kiln and clay is in my blood so I need to keep something going.

It says that it is 81 dec=gees outside....but my thermometer says its 92 in my kitchen office.

Tonight I need to go to the work building and pick up a box that they say is my personal belongings. I dont remember leaving anything personal. I hope the boss isn't making me responsible for the retiree's things.

We shall see.

I hope the boss isn't making me responsible for the retiree's things. hope so too, but you can say,
"nope, that isn't mine!"

Good luck with the clay and glad you get to use the spa

This! Refuse to take anything that isn't specifically yours.

I opened the box and left the few things that were the old coworkers.

you are going to push me over the edge to buy one of those blow-up spas. i keep thinking about it. which one did you buy? are you doing all the chemicals for it? a filter?

[ravena_kade]

we have the Intex pre spa, inflatable spa. It has a filter that can heat the water and give you bubbles. It uses chlorine tablets.

[chris_warrior]

that's the one i was looking at. very cool! how long have you had it?? glad to see someone using it and loving it! :D

[ravena_kade]

we had it since may. Easy to set up.

My cousins have had theirs for 2 years.

Nice to have the spa when it's hot. Lucky you having fresh blueberries, I'd love to grow my own.

[ravena_kade]

Do you have a little balcony? Blueberry bushes can be grown in pots.

[gwendraith]

That's a good idea. I have quite a lot of space on the balcony :)

I have a friend in elderly housing and we have made her quite the garden on her balcony. She has tomatoes and cucumbers and Iris & Daylilies that bloom. We just wrap the pots with burlap for the winter months.

I have often grown veggies in pots but never fruit. I don't know why I didn't think of it. I have some nice flowers growing in pots that I bought a few weeks ago from a garden centre. Our winters aren't usually that cold so I think they will be protected on the balcony which is wide and high but covered.

Soaking in the spa sounds lovely.

Also, glad that your fencing is keeping the varmints at bay!
