Due to the tropical storm, the only construction work was restoring this room to use. My husband put the insulation and plastic back up and then cleaned out the tools and debris. My helper friend vacuumed up the mess and my son went over the woodwork with the brush attachment to remove the sheetrock dust and insulation. This is as good as it will get for a very long time.
I zipped out between showers and harvested this toothache plant for this year’s use. It will be dehydrated.
Then I cut some beebalm and deadheaded the plants.
I finished cutting away all the buggy leaves on the plantain. These 3 will be loaded into the dehydrators.
I’d sent my helper friend out to clean out the cukes. The usable ones he would take, the old ones went to the hens.
I looked out to see what was taking him so long, and found him harvesting sugar pod peas. I’d not wanted another project as I’d planned to get all the house plants watered and pay bills while he did other inside stuff. But we got 3 more meals of peas in the freezer before I could get back to what I planned to do.
He put a chicken in the crockpot for supper and then, as I said, cleaned up the bedroom. I never did finish the bills….
Wednesday is to be a nice day, and I hope to get some work done in the gardens.
