We started setting up our indoor garden last night. We had been given a few plants that were already started and I kept them alive and growing the last couple of weeks. We started a large number of new seeds last night, and it will be a week or so until we can plant them in the garden.

got pex running through the attic now! at some other opportune time i will put shutoffs on the hot manifold to each loop. mainly i'd like to get the kitchen and guest bath lines, since those are likely the next to blow! and i'll likely just put some pex fittings in to prepare for running them through the attic as well. now that i see where everything is, shouldn't be too big a job for me to do. i already have a 1/2" crimper

Hey guess what, i'm about to order some oyster mushroom mycellium plugs to install in the pecan stump in my back yard! it's gonna be awesome, cause the fungus will deteriorate the stump without me doing much work AND i'll get at least a small crop of mushrooms

My old boss used to grow his own mushrooms, he lived in a heavily wooded area. ****ake... or something like that. He had piles and piles of wood set up for it, then had a sprinkler system set up to wet them several times per day. He moved to Oklahoma and took his pallets of wood with him. Probably 10 loads of wood, down to his land down in northern OK.

im in central oklahoma!
i mde some oyster mushrooms with a kit several years ago, and i tried to get some logs going once before but the logs weren't the right kind. now i've got some pecan, it shoudl work alright. plus its not terribly old, and should be moist in the center still. i'm hoping the fungus takes root quickly and yields a crop in April or so

Our plants we planted for the indoor garden are starting to grow pretty good some are about 3/4 inch tall. We planted them on Thursday. I am anxious to get them put into the garden and watch them grow.

somehow i weighed in at 180.0lbs this morning. i must have has some kind of massive water loss, that or the extra fiber really cleaned me out! i truly expected to be pushing 190 after all the stress of the crazy events lately. that and the unhealthy food everywhere - turns out that hospital food isn't nearly as healthy as what I make for myself daily lol

Someone on a page was talking about an all egg diet-- Its a form of Keto (nothing but eggs- butter- and salt) but man I think I would burn out trying to do that.-- I might be able to for a week- but dang.
