I Think I Need A Cat
Well, I went out to my vegetable garden this morning and found three holes dug by some type of critters that like to burrow underground. I'm leaning towards chipmunks. I guess I really don't mind, but they can destroy some of the vegetables in their quest to dig. My garden soil is nice and soft, so their digging goes easily. When I had a cat, my yard and my neighbors' yards were critter free. I'm tempted to take in another kitty, but I like having a cat fur free home. My garden is moving along well. A couple of years ago, I planted some wild-like strawberry plants. They grow everywhere. I ripped out countless plants. I was hoping they would produce some berries, but so far, only little, dry things. My lemon balm and oregano were out of control. That is, until I went at them with my trusted clippers. I planted some dill weed under the trellis that will support my cucumbers. Everything else has germinated and is growing well. I did a little weeding and hoeing before the sun got too hot.
