Finally I have the right tree :-)

So the weather prognosis said we should get rain from very early morning to late night today but it didn’t start until after 5 pm. Mostly drizzle but one heavy shower has passed by just now. Thunder is also in the neighborhood but it doesn’t seem to come any closer at the moment.

I was surprised by getting two packages today. The first one I was expecting, it was the anti fungal thing I’ll use against peach leave curl. A disease that always hit peaches and slowly kills the tree. I hope this will help my peach tree to survive. I can’t understand how the first wild peaches (there is no wild peach any longer and they don’t seem to really know from where this fruit first came) survived at all but then again we’ve most likely meddled with these trees so much that they no longer can survive without our help.

The other package wasn’t supposed to arrive until tomorrow but I’m glad it did come today. I finally have my apricot tree 🙂 They had delivered it to my entrance. The odd thing is that they refused to do so when the first tree (which is the peach tree I now have) because the package was too high. This package was exactly the same hight but this time there was no problem at all 🙂 🙂 🙂 So now I need to figure out where to place it since the peach tree now stands in the spot where I was supposed to have my apricot tree 🙂 🙂

So today was back to work after the long holiday and I’ve been painting all day long. I had a chat with a higher up person about what I thought about Fridays events and I really can’t write anything about it here but I did think that I might be forced to have a conversation about it with the one planning it 🙂 🙂 🙂 Well I didn’t but I do hope they think about the next time they want to do something similar. I won’t go because I said that that would never happen again 🙂 🙂 🙂

It is time to go downstairs again. I feel like a cup of tea might be in place. I have a head ache so I hope that a cup of tea will solve that. I’m really tired now as well so I doubt that a late cup of tea will keep me up tonight. It doesn’t look like the thunder will come any closer though. I’ve always wondered what I should do with my electrical toilet. Should I keep it plugged in or do like I do with almost all other electrical things, unplug it? It has happened that the lightning has come out into my cottage but that was before they dug down all the cables. It would be good to know though.

DSC_0002 (2) — My vegetable patch. It does look much smaller than it actually is.

DSC_0001 (1) — I left all the removed lawn by the fence side. I’m thinking of perhaps just arrange them in a nicer way and to keep them all there. It would become a wind break when eastern winds blow.

DSC_0004 (2) — I have several small Loquat trees and I’ve planted one in my garden. It’s on the border to what it cane take here but since I have several so why not try. Normally one should wait to plant them until they are three years old, like I did with my Black Walnut but then again I have plenty 🙂

Have a great day!

Hi Christer,
Perhaps your conversation will lead to them asking you to be activities coordinator for the club. 😉
I hadn’t considered that aspect of electric toilets. But I’m fairly certain I wouldn’t want to be using it during a lightening storm. Just in case. My mother used to tell us we couldn’t use anything in the bathroom or the pantry during a lightening storm because the lightening would zap us if we touched the sinks. Good excuse to not do dishes, I think. 😄
Today was sunny and warm with a light breeze. It’s clouded up now and thre breeze is picking u. There’s rain coming but not till later this evening.

  Hi Caryn!
  
  Thankfully I doubt that 🙂 🙂 🙂
  They would never admit that the trip was boring but hopefully do big changes to the next time.
  
  I had the same orders here and I still don’t use any water taps or the shower during a thunderstorm. Especially since the time two lightnings hit the village the same time and one of my neighbors entire electricity meters and fuses blew up 🙂 🙂 🙂
  
  Raining this afternoon. It started just before I came home but I wanted to plant that apricot tree and also sow seeds in my new vegetable patch. I was soaking wet when I finally came indoors again 🙂 🙂
  
  Have a great day!
  
  Christer.
