Dear Hubby and I are in our Golden Years, and we are not getting any younger. My Rheumatoid Arthritis limits me to what I can do some days. For the past few years, I have prayed about something and asking God to show me the way and guide me in doing what needed to be done. I needed to make some changes for our future in the garden and find a way to help us physically. I had to learn to embrace change and come up with a plan and solution.
That meant that next I had to do some research, planning, getting dear hubby's advice and perspective, setting back a garden budget, putting it on paper, and finally begin putting the plan into motion.
Last fall we started some of those changes by removing T-posts and fences we used to brace our tomato plants and green bean vines. The T-posts for the grapes and blackberries are permanent and not going anywhere. This is what we started with. My dear hubby and grandkids were obliged to help. It all had to be cleaned out. The next step was to move the outside perimeter T-post to extend my garden width-wise and length-wise. Yes, a little bigger. We removed the solar panel and all the wires. They are going to be replaced with something new anyway.
After we got all that done, work called dear hubby, and it was time to go on a work trip. We had to stop right there and close the garden down. We got back from our work trip to find us in the throes of the holidays, which we enjoyed with family, so no work was done. After the first of the year, we anticipated getting some work done, but before we could get really started, A FREAKING ICE STORM CAME!!!! They called it Ice Storm Fern. I guess a lot of you heard of it and felt its effects. That is a whole other post about how we survived that one. Once we were over that and the ice melted, it was a muddy mess. Then, on top of that, dear hubby's work calls again, and it is time to head out again for work. I am getting very agitated by now and questioning God. I know, I know, we are not to do that, but I got in my flesh.
If you are like me and see that you need to make some changes, I hope this information will help you somehow and make you feel motivated to make these changes for your health or your garden.
