RE: Gardenjournal: autumn harvest, winter crops and my little yam family

in #gardenjournal8 months ago

I hope my tomato crops are good this summer too, I fixed my freezer.
The horned melons are edible and not something you want to step on with bare feet, that's for sure. I've realised that they taste according to the weather that year. Too much rain and little sun makes them bland but normal summer weather

Sort:  

☘️☘️☘️ This summer we had a decent amount of sun, I can't complain.

That's good. I hope you and your family are well?

The formal answer is 'yes' but that would be not true... All of my family is not in mental good form : / especially my daughter case and living, its constantly frustrates, depresses me, and makes my hands 'go down'. Let me skip the details. Something should grow up from the inside itself, you cant do it for another human, right?.. Of course I want a better life for my only baby. But what we are getting for now, has a common name, not sure this is correct title in English or not: 'learned (acquired) helplessness'. Nothing to boast about, really. That is also the reason why I did not posted to Home Edders community even once. Simply, I have nothing to boast about. People are supposed to share smth good, what they are proud of, not their losses or stupid errors, etc.
If you was asking in a broader sense - its a war time after all - the situation here is toleratable, i.e. did not come to an ugly degrees poorly compatible with life. My wife and I still have jobs, with a below average income, we have food, electricity, internet, all this is not yet going to fall like a house of cards and disappear into the dust. But.. as they say, if the fall lasts not for 10 seconds but for 50 years, then you can fall for a long time and consider that everything is correct, and there is no reason to worry.. at least, I am happy with my current job in the publishing house. It is maybe the best one that happened in my whole life. Sounds fantastic, right?.. PS. I make requests on a regular basis that we should adopt a new cat, but my wife still refuses, and we live a cat orphans life. Our whitee was the only normal, non-crazy person in our family.
