I miss having a garden. Hopefully next spring I can start another one.
On a completely unrelated note, the kid got a job a part time Walmart job and they work around his college classes. A selfish bonus is I can place an online order and he'll bring it home. Free delivery. Prolly do some tacos tomorrow for lunch. Maybe some steak tips on Sunday and do some chicken tortilla soup in the crock pot. Freeze some single serving sizes and thaw them out to take for lunches and stuff. It's been many months since I did a batch of chicken tortilla soup, It always turns out yummy.
Bought a battery powered snow thrower/shovel thingy off of Amazon for those days that it snows but doesn't snow enough to fire up the big snowblower. Has 4.8 stars and good reviews on Amazon and elsewhere so I bought it new for like $95. Claims to clear up to 6 inches of snow, can run up to over an hour between charges and moves up to 300 lbs of snow per minute depending on the weight of the snow (yeah, we'll see). Light fluffy stuff, it is probably true. Wet and heavy stuff, probably not true.
Just something to use rather than shoveling off the deck, sidewalk and stairs. I'm too old for that $hit and I don't want to blow out my back again nor my kids' backs. Work smarter, not harder. It's battery powered so we don't have to drag a cord around or gas it up.
Just out of curiosity I looked at it again on the web. The price was jacked up to about $200 or more on Amazon, Home Depot, Loews. Unintentionally I bought it before they jacked up the price to double for what I bought it for. Timing is everything but nobody can predict the future.
