We Have Straw!

And hopefully we are not going to grow straw since our intent was to use it as mulch as many of the garden books say to do!  I have visions of having it sprout up everywhere, but I have been assured that it won't do it.  We.  Will.  See.

Count me not convinced.

So after 13 bails of straw, this is what our garden looks like now:

Beans, cucumber (against the fence), mator, eggplant and pepper side:

Yes, everything is still little bitty, but it is there - I promise!

Okra, Corn, squash, radishes, onions... blah, blah, blah...
 

Closer view of mators and peppers on the right, and if you look real close, you can see onions growing on the bottom left corner:
 

Megan getting the dirt out from under her fingernails.  Yes, she worked!

This is Steve today NOT WORKING right?
 

*sigh*

And him getting caught:
 

Here is Chelsea, who is not keeping her daddy held down like she needs to do:
 

And this is her playing dead when I fussed her for not holding daddy down:
 

I also found some monster mouse practicing playing dead (he learned it from Chelsea) in a full sized lawn chair.  I bet the Monkey cat has gained 10 lbs since he moved here!  He is HUGE!  If you think of it  this way:  a typical sized butt supposed to sit there...

And a picture of Steve, not favoring the arm he has (not) been using nor using healing waters for the pain in his arm and knees:
 

That was what we accomplished yesterday and today.   Lots and lots of straw.

And of course 7+ hours of therapy.  

Tomorrow we have the melon patch to put straw on...

And that straw had better not be growing...
