This morning, instead of working out, I worked in the garden. I cleared out another section and put together my new pop up greenhouse! You can see I left some flowers at the end of the garden for the pollinators. I’m still finding bees in the garden.
I planted kale, arugula, and two varieties of lettuce seed. My hope is the cooler weather and greenhouse will keep the moths at bay. I will have to watch the slugs, though. Fingers crossed we’ll have some greens soon! And if it works well, next spring I’ll plant cabbage in there, and hope to have some to harvest early.
I also got my hair cut off this week! I love it. I tried to grow it long, but once it hit a certain length I kept pulling it back. Why have long hair if you only wear it pulled into a ponytail? So I went back to short hair. I will probably never try to grow it long again.
Do you have any finished objects to share today?

What a great little greenhouse! I wish we could grow more things here but between the lack of rain and the gollum-like creatures that take stuff, I’ve kind of given up on much. Super cute cut – it looks great on you!

You look great in short hair. I always wore my hair short and now it is down my back. I like buns and braids. I have been teaching myself different ways to wear it and I am having a lot of fun.

That does sound fun. I always think I will do that but I never do.

Gardening can be a great workout. We’ve grown greens throughout the winter here in Canada in our greenhouse. Kale often survives outside!

The haircut looks good! And I love the idea of a pop-up greenhouse. I don’t have a yard to use one in, but it’s something to keep in mind when we eventually move.

What a perfect haircut for you! Very good move! How fun to get you greenhouse in place for winter greens. I have an old wheelbarrow that I will be growing my greens in this winter. The plan is to wheel it into the garage when the weather turns nasty and out again on nicer days.

Cabbage, sprouts and kale can make it through the winter here outdoors but those flipping late summer cabbage white butterflies! I’ll be intrigued to see how your greenhouse goes, I haven’t heard of brassicas being grown under cover before, so will be interested to see how they go. Haha the reason I keep mine long and wack it in a ponytail is because I can’t be bothered going to the hairdressers at all, never mind regularly, I am so lazy with how I look 😂 I do love your short hair though.

That is an awesome haircut and I love the greenhouse. I’d like to do something like that someday to extend my growing season in Colorado.

Love your new haircut. Really looks great. I look forward to hear about what you think of your greenhouse. I keep wondering about putting up one. Due to our pool concrete disaster, we are filling in the pool and creating garden space. Maybe a greenhouse??
