[Gardening with Rabbits]

I miss my clothesline. When we moved here it worked pretty well, but then the wooden posts started to rot, so I took it down. Also, unlike when we lived in town, it was under several maple trees and the birds like to shxt on the sheets.
BLECH!!!
Can't think of another place to have a clothes line, so...we'll see.
At the other house I used to use the 4 line clothesline ALL OF THE TIME. That's probably why the old dryer that we inherited lasted so long.

I used to bring clothes in off the line and they would have earwigs inside. I guess they get on the clothes for moisture. It was not all the time, just seemed to be a certain time of the year it would happen. I also would pick elderberries and have them in a big bowl and I would have to keep the berries outside and get another bowl and get all the earwigs off before I could bring them in the house.

Another day of sitting in recliner, foot up, ice pack on, watching Sheep TV out the window, which, by the way, is about a million times better than anything on daytime TV. Even that is kinda boring right now as they are taking their noon time nap and ruminating. Selfish sheep, don't they know I'm bored?

As I am recovering I sit in my recliner and watch old Gunsmoke shows on DVD. I have my curtains open and watch the birds and squirrels and my cat sleeping on my lap.

@baymule check your library system for e-books you can get into without having to go to the library.

Earwigs invade my dahlias. Something fierce! When I bring a flower in, I've got to shake it over the sink to see if there are any in there.

I love hanging my clothes out to dry! They last longer and smell so fresh and clean. I have a few spots to hang them where nothing gets on them - yay!

I've seen a few, too, coming in with the harvest, which is ABOUT TO END!!
Freeze Watch for us, tonight and tomorrow night.
Hope it kills off the earwigs AND the grasshoppers.

Had Raisin Bran with cream and skim milk, makes 1/2 and 1/2, and my coffee...
for 2nd breakfast.
AND coffee.

Earwigs invade my dahlias

Yes, and they shred petals. I don't know if Spinosad just keeps them off the flowers or kills them but it works. (So does the 3 in 1.)

I have never seen earwigs in the clothes hung out and FORTUNATELY, there are no power lines or tree branches over the clothes line. I've never seen a bird stop on the line, as well. It may be too unstable for their comfort. Heaven knows, we have enuf sparrows in the yard.

The joys of country living. It’s 45 minutes and 40 miles away. LOL

There’s one in Lufkin, 25 miles and 35 minutes away. I go to Lufkin twice a week for PT, I’ll check it out.
