We spent all day, and I mean all day yesterday planting a garden. Well, I say planting a garden, but what I really mean is doing everything except the soil, and plants. I know that most people equate the soil and plants with planting a garden, but we made the everlasting eternal garden. This thing is state of the art and will even water itself.
Since our Stake Presidency has asked us to become more self-reliant and specifically plant a fall garden, we felt we should probably do just that. Luckily, our friends, the Rowleys, are constantly helping us improve our house and lives. They built two garden boxes for us to begin this quest.
Tomorrow, we go 25 miles to find the perfect soil for the proper gardener's garden. So in total, with soil, pipes, staple gun, gopher proof mesh wiring, etc, we have spent about $150. That seems like quite a lot of vegetables from Bashas.
Stepping back, I suppose the pain in my whole body, blisters on both hands, and dehydration the day before Fast Sunday, we spent quite a bit to follow our leaders. It would seem to me that murmur, murmur, murmur. And if we only murmur, murmur, murmur.
So, my one person reading this, as you can see, this rant probably caused me to loose all blessings for obedience and my carrots will now sprout into mutant gopher food. murmur, murmur, murmur.
