More water problems and the garden

Mokey says none of this is his fault!

What is that old song they used to sing on Hee Haw?

Gloom, despair, and agony on me.
Deep dark depression, excessive agony.

It's really not that bad. But gosh! I haven't had a minute lately.

I had planned to go into great detail about how our hot water heater sprang a leak under the house and has been spewing hot water and steam for probably two months now. We never would have known had the power bill not more than doubled in the last two months. Yes doubled! Oh my gosh! Friends, it pays to check under the house occasionally.

My nephew Greg, who just happens to be the best plumber around, came out and fixed the problem. Now we have the worry of drying out the flooded crawl space and the dripping insulation and the water soaked rafters, well maybe it's the floor joists I'm talking about. Anyway, it's all those boards the insulation is tucked into when you look up from the crawl space.

On a happier note, I've got happy pictures of the teeny tiny garden.

Tomatoes

The rain showers these last three days has everything in  the garden happy and growing.

Green tomatoes hiding in there

Onions

Poppy says I planted the onions too deep. I followed the directions on the bag of sets??

Crookneck Squash

Kale

Sweet Banana Peppers

I love Sweet Banana peppers! Sorry to gloat over such a teeny tiny garden. The garden makes me happy. I need happy today.

Blackberries

and down past the blackberries are the sunflowers and zinnias.

Smokey's new job around is watching over the goat's lot.

Ya'll okay down there?

and now a quick nap.

Too many pictures, I know. I get carried away. Poppy say, no wonder you are always needing new batteries. You take too many pictures of the same thing.

Thank you for stopping by.

Love,
Henny

and for good measure, I'll throw in one of old sweetie pie...
