Now I have a couple of empty planters I decided to sieve the roots and crap out the compost and refill one to sow some spinach in. I might sow a few stump rooted carrots in the other, will have to check what seeds I have.
We just finished weeding our garden today. We let the weeds get a little out of hand and it took two days get it all weeded. I tilled another section of the garden so we can plant some garlic and more onion sets. Got the orchard mowed and everything watered.
Yesterday was hot and miserable. The temp hit 87 degs with 19% humidity, and it only cooled down to 65 last night. That's more like August weather. Today is more normal at 62.
Getting and staying in shape should be a priority, just not sure what my excuse is.... I’m glad you’re making a really good effort.I just joined a gym.
I've been stashing guns, ammo, food water, medical stuff, etc..
And, of course, I let myself get out of shape.
I started using the stairmaster (you know you're making progress when you need to vomit), and lifting weights.
Also, about 2/3 to 3/4 of my work commuting is on my bicycle
If you really want to get into shape, why don't you come out here and give me a hand? I need to move our winter supply of hay in to the barn. Good upper body work out.I just joined a gym.

Yeah, all great forms of exercise, but do you have beautiful girls in skintight outfits? I often wondered why people join gyms and that was the best reason I could come up with. Personally I would rather use the energy from a workout on doing something productive too. Seriously though, any form of exercise is better than none.If you really want to get into shape, why don't you come out here and give me a hand?

Or how about helping with the fence? I've got a section about 2 miles long that's too steep to drive the 4 wheelers to and have to pack in the fence posts, barb wire and tools on my back. I've got to split and stack a winter's supply of firewood too. Or maybe you could help me thin a few acres of trees this fall. Or this winter you could strap on some snow shoes and follow me around on the trap line. All great exercise, or so I hear.
You got me there Brent. Not too many girls around here in skin tight outfits. Although it's not uncommon to see a beautiful girl on horseback in a tight tank top bouncing around.....Yeah, all great forms of exercise, but do you have beautiful girls in skintight outfits?

Be careful storing paper products in an attic. The swings in temperature will, over time, cause paper products to deteriorate into dust.I did some reorganizing in my attic. I counted 412 rolls of toilet paper, 64 rolls of paper towels between there and the bathroom closet. I threw out some old holiday decorations and used the space for old magazines(populer mechanics and hunting, fishing mostly) and paper plates. I will also add the old set of encyclopedia's as soon as I aquire more sealable containers.
Split about a bunch of wood earlier in the week with the electric log splitter.

Yes you are correct. My attic is below a double roof and ventilated, its mostly shaded by tree branches and the part that is not has solor panels. It doesn't get over 105 up there. I seel everything in containers with moisture absorbers. I had tested some paper products for 2 years up there that were not as protected and they were fine.Be careful storing paper products in an attic.

I'm a stamp collector, and I lost some valuable parts of my collection when a well-intentioned girlfriend put stuff in the attic when she was cleanung up my place.
I agree, but I said both an active lifestyle and working out should be used together...they are both beneficial, but not interchangable.I've said this before, I had muscle fit guys here that have no endurance and no strength in the right places, they didn't last. In farm work one will be using muscles they didn't know they had and using in a far longer period of time certainly more than a few hours a day at the gym. Muscles ain't shit if they are the wrong one's, looking pretty won't cut!
