Broken Ankle

A week and a half ago, I was walking down the street, stepped down wrong, and busted my ankle. Went to the hospital, got Xrays and they said I had a minor crack in the bone. So, it's broken, but they felt it didn't need a cast.

Weird bruising has been showing up; bruises on top of my toes, bruises on the back of my calf. Seems strange to get bruises in areas that never got hurt!

It's super painful. Way more painful than when I broke my other ankle last year. 

Here's some pics of it

Sort of gross! hope I didn't gross anyone out! LOL!

Hopefully it will be better soon! 

Hugs and love!

Baby Cow

One of the cows we are babysitting had a baby this morning! Super happy to report that both baby and mama are healthy and happy!

Hugelkultur

The soil here is horrible and my vegetables gardens have been crappy ever since I moved here. This year I decided to try a different style of garden. After much research, decided to try a hugelkultur garden bed.

Hugelkultur, pronounced Hoo-gul-culture, means hill culture or hill mound.

The bottom is big old rotten logs. The logs rot and add nutrients into the soil. They also help to aerate the soil and hold water, so the garden requires less watering. In addition, the heat from the rotting logs helps to keep the soil warmer and extends the growing season.

Next, old leaves and other lawn debris is added. this helps to fill in any gaps in the logs. The leaves and lawn debris helps to add nutrients in the soil. After that, I added a layer of horse and cow poop. Babysitting the cows and horses paid off! LOL I got a ton of manure.

After the cow and horse manure, I added a layer of old chicken coop shavings and poop. Took the time, to push everything down to ensure there was no gaps underneath. If there are gaps, rats and other rodents can get in and makes burrows! Don't want that happening!

After the chicken poop and shavings, we added soil on top. Lots and lots of soil on top! We pushed down the soil to ensure there was no gaps and then we added more soil. Once the soil was added, we added another layer of old chicken poop compost.

And its done!\

We found lots of free fencing over at the gravel pit, just carried it home! The fencing is a bit mismatch, but we don't care. It keeps the greedy geese and ducks out, and that's what matters! They destroy gardens!

Now just gotta wait a couple of weeks to plant my seedlings. here in Nova Scotia, we get frost in June so gotta be careful

Later in the summer, I'll let you know how the garden worked out! Fingers crossed!

Hugs and love!

Snow

Welcome to Nova Scotia. the most confusing weather province in Canada LOL!

We had a snow storm yesterday. About 15cm of really wet heavy snow with lots of wind. the snow was so heavy it bent the tress over. thankfully most of the trees here are birch and bend well. The poor horses and cows didn't have much space left in their area this morning!

We shook the trees to knock off most of the snow and they sprang back up again! Snow is already melting as it's now +6 and sunny out. Tomorrow we are back to +15!

The cows and horses had a lot more room once we shook the snow off the trees!

I love Nova Scotia! Always keeps you on your toes! LOL

Scary Times

Hi Friends!

You ok? Things are pretty damn scary :(

Honestly, I'm freaking out a bit. With having sarcoidosis, COPD and asthma, I'm one of the "vulnerable". It's scary. I'm not sure I'll survive if I get it. I don't want to die! I want to be here another 40-50 years!

I've been self isolating for the last couple of weeks, but as we are pretty low income, my son Travis still has to go to town once a week to buy food/feed as we don't have the money to be able to stock up. I'm so scared he may pick it up in town and bring it home :(  If we had the money to buy a few weeks worth, we'd never leave the property. the perk of living here, we have hundreds of acres of forest we can walk and never see a person :)

Some of the grocery stores in town are starting to offer delivery, so hoping one will offer it here to Thorburn. That would be a lot safer.

I'm freaking over money too. I have worked so hard to have multiple income sources, but they are all dead :( No Etsy sales, no art sales, no book sales, nothing. Only thing bringing in any money is the farm, and that's not a hell of a lot. I'm really stressing about feeding the birds. Heard rumors the feedstore in town may be shutting down for a few weeks! I hope not! they should be considered essential. how are farmers going to feed their animals?

Scary times!

Something cheerier! My sweetheart Bosco turns 1 at the end of the month! I still miss Taco a lot, but I'm so thankful for Bosco. He helps me get through the day!

Blog Changes

Good day awesome friends! As you can see I've changed and updated my blog!

It had been a long time since I updated it and as I wanted to downsize my work load a bit, I shut down my Happy Hippie Haven blog and sort of combined it with this one. :) Hopefully it will make things a bit easier!

Make a Marijuana Grow Box for Free

With it being legal to grow four plants per household here in Canada, many people are giving it a try. My house is super cold in the winter, making it very difficult to grow plants, so I made this grow box. It took me about 15 minutes to make and didn't cost me a penny; I had everything needed around the house.

A friend kindly gave me this box. It worked perfect for what I wanted. A good height for small plants and fairly thick cardboard.

I cut a hole in the top and attached the light to a piece of wood. super easy. Light goes in hole I cut. piece of wood sits on top of box. 

Next, I lined the inside of the box with Styrofoam that was covered in tinfoil (which a friend rescued from the side of the highway). The Styrofoam helps to keep the inside of the box nice and warm, and the foil helps to reflect the light so the plants get more. 

I started from seeds, so when they first went in, I put the glasses on a pile of books so they were closer to the light. As the plants grew I simply removed books. Once the plants get about 80-90% to the lights, I'll start flowering them. I do that simply by decreasing the light they get.  The box isn't extremely large, so it won't allow me to grown huge plants, but it works great for small plants and even a small plant can produce a few ounces of bud.

Super easy and cheap, anyone can make one :)
