Rainy Sunday thinking!

Been a while since posting anything, so maybe a few updates are in line. The twitter feed keeps crashing on my page. I am doing almost all my current projects on twitter with photos. Its so much faster and easier! I wish the twitter gadget won't go crazy on here all the time.

My garden plantings for 2010 are doing good for the most part. All the tomatoes are up and growing good. The onions also. Not so much for the California Bell pepper plants. Not a single one of them came up. NOTHING. So I got a different brand of seed for them and going to re-plant and see what happens this time.

Think I'll re-pot some stuff today since its getting bigger! I want to build a little greenhouse/tunnel for my garden so I can get stuff out earlier, but so far the weather is still in winter mode. HELLO? Time for Spring already!

My solar array and wind generator are finally on-line and operational. They are working great. Its cloudy and rainy here today, but I'm still getting a slight charge despite the weathers best efforts to rob me of watt hours!

Reading and learning as much as possible about off-grid living. We are planning on a move in the near future, just not so sure how near at this point? I really want to be in the woods, main thing I miss from Missouri. I really hate living in town! I'm not a city person! As the song goes, "Send me to Hell or New York City, it'd be about the same to me."

  1. Last year we bought the pepper plants at Lowe's & they grew fine, but then I threw the seeds from those peppers into the garden with the compost & they went insane...ended up with about 40 pepper plants in a very small area. I didn't even put dirt over them! My freezer is still full of them. So you might just want to buy a pepper & throw the seeds out there!
