Super...Bee...

So, school has been so much fun and unlike Bookworm, Roadrunner is excited to please at school. This is reflected in the earning of SuperBee three times this year already!

Above Roadrunner is pictured with SuperBee and his new haircut.

A little explaining, SuperBee is a reward tool for the kids in his Kindergarten class. They must model good behaviour, quality work and other desirous qualities in school. Roadrunner, is a natural reader and will be visiting the pumpkin patch later today. We'll post pictures of that later.

The children are all looking forward to Halloween and have been plotting their costumes.

Our Microwave has decided to randomly arc inside from the top panel and thus we have declared the fire hazard dead. We are using an interim microwave until we can replace the old one in the hood of our stove.

Our driveway is nearly healed, just missing the bricks, but we've been told how gaining entry to our house is a good theft deterrent. See, we expanded our project with the help and encouragement of a neighbor who digs in the dirt for a hobby, and has begun to hobby in our yard. So now our rock path next to the decaying wood border has been deepened enough to lay in a new paver path. We are still working on that project as we are working around the soaking weather. Next, we will dig up much of the sod in our front yard to allow for creative genius in making our yard a miniature garden of Eden. Spring will be beautiful next year!

Pictures to follow...

Following the Prophet

So, as the weather has been cooler at night and somewhat warm in the day, I decided to check on my garden plot out back. It looked like a frost may have touched it, or at least torn as wether to grow or not, anymore. So... I decided that my carrots tops coming through the top of the soil looked sizable enough, my peppers had turned the proper colors, I had red tomatoes and brown hairs hat the top of my corn. I knew I had some cucumbers still growing, I peaked under the shady leaves and plucked two cucumbers. And I know its only September, but I have three Orange pumpkins threatening to be ripe enough to eat (by bugs).

Now comes the interesting part. I think my garden missed the fertilizer I fed it, the water I carefully soaked the soil with and the ladybugs that graced the leaves of my cucumber plant and carrots. Because they are all really small. I grew a miniature garden this year. It wasn't my first year growing a successful garden and I hope it not to be my last, but this year it seemed like it had no oomph. So, there are a couple of pictures to share my most recent spoils. But before you glance and think I did fine, spot the quarter in front of the orange pepper for size reference. LOL

All I can do is hum the song.... Follow the Prophet! Clearly, this was not my year to live off my garden. Lets be thankful of that!
