Monday 17 February

Ta Das:
  • decided not to fuck up all my hard work
  • coffee, not breakfast
  • checked time for Dan's singing lesson, updated calendar
  • discovered the idea of building swales on contour instead of digging and piling, using tree branches and waste from site clearing instead of digging - this idea may have much more promise for widespread use, given my physical limitations! (although looking into it, it probably still involves digging, but maybe not as much)
  • got into farm clothes
  • surveyed The Heap and decided how to adjust it before mulching
  • make any changes that can be done without the brush-cutter (IN PROGRESS - involves digging and moving rocks to make terraces)
  • harvested silverbeet, zucchini, carrots, snowpeas, beans and parsley; cooked brunch (scrambled tofu) for me and the kids
  • logged/planned my food for the day
  • did some more work on The Heap, got Eric to help moving rocks
  • rest and rehydration break 
  • did some more work on The Heap, finished the round terrace
  • showered and got dressed; had a nap; went to Geeveston and played Wizards Unite
  • watered all the raised beds, borders, potato beds and containers (need to double check with watering can)
  • made hummus; helped Hugh make dinner
  • helped set up/clean up after BBQ
