Barn Hop 15
We skipped last week due to Memorial Day, so Im sure everyone has a lot to share. Im really dragging after a late night at the airport seeing our daughter off on her trip, so my post will be short and a tad bittersweet as a result of our week.
The bee saga has come to an end.
Before we left for the airport, my daughter and I suited up (in case we had to fight robber bees) and went into the hive. The evidence confirmed my suspicions... foreign bees. The hive was mostly empty and the queen was nowhere to be found. If she survived, she must have swarmed with the remaining workers in order to avoid a total masacre. {Sigh... } It was better than finding her dead. I packed up the hive and brought it in.
So... I learned a lot about what not to do and next year, Ill make better choices. It took two weeks for me to grieve my way through my mistake, but Im fine now and ready to move on...
• We hatched 10 chicks in an incubator this week and were blessed to see new life!
• The windows are nearly finished for the chicken coop! (After 2 years!!)
• My husband has started brackets for a laundry line on the back of our garage. (Ill explain that one another day!)
• Im going to finally attempt to make soil blocks with my new soil blocker sometime this week.
• Time to finish getting the garden in.
• In order to take my mind off my daughter being gone, Im going to go through several areas in the house and reorganize! (Organization always makes me feel good).
Now its your turn! Please join us and do-sa-do...
