Remember my raised veggie pod?
Well it’s not mine anymore.
Adoring Husband has taken charge.
We towed the trailer to Springvale Nursery and Hervey Bay Nursery to get potting mix and perlite and some herbs for the garden.
We purchased a pair of garden gloves for BGWLBH because AH had asked her to help him prepare and plant. She is an avid gardener.
At home, I prepared lunch before AH filled the pod with all the bags of stuff and because he still hadn’t invited her to help, while he worked, BGWLBH and I watched a Netflix movie called “The Old Guard”.
Very good movie … quite violent but I could handle it.
Once he was finished the manual labour, I told him that we girls were going to do the planting … I was going to supervise where I wanted the seedlings and seeds and then BGWLBH would do the dirty work. He didn’t look keen, but we stepped outside and began our planning.
We discussed it briefly and between the two of us we decided which plants would go IN the pod, which would go UNDER the pod, which would go into the little hanging planters on the pillar and which would go in the open garden bed near the pool.
Without even lifting a finger, I experienced a twinge in my back and needed to go inside to lie down.
At that point AH decided to put his 2c worth in and made different decisions regarding the garden.
So we’ve decided to just leave it to him.
I’m considering purchasing a second pod so that BGWLBH and I can experience the joy of gardening ourselves.
While we were at the nurseries, I was hoping to find some nice pots and garden ornaments, but I couldn’t find anything that tickled my fancy, so my money remained in my wallet.
Dinner was duck breast with mixed roast vegetables, broccoli and mushroom sauce. It was ok.
MAFS was next and suddenly it’s after 11pm and I have an early start tomorrow.
So … nite all.
