This week on the homestead
It’s starting to feel more like home, though it’s still way too easy to stub a toe in the dark! Last weekend we had quite a spectacular thunderstorm and I stayed awake as long as I could on Saturday to watch the sky light up.
This week I rolled out plopped down the welcome mat:

It’s a cheapie, but it’s kinda cute. Unless I get something super heavy-duty, it’s just going to get trashed anyhow. I like the stars… and I stopped by the craft store for something and happened to see these on clearance:

Okay, enough with the stars. Out in the yard, the grapes are doing well:
Mr W’s been digging up all the weeds in the yard and I’ve been pulling up ivy. It’s starting to look better already. Well, you know, for a dirt patch. And we’ve found a huge amount of these:
There’s even more than this… and we have NO CLUE what they are. Guess we’ll stick ‘em back in the ground and see what happens!
Okay, boring post today. Blah blah. Sorry!

Oooh, mystery bulbs! What fun! Put ‘em back, mark where they are, and wait for next spring/summer/fall!
