@ratgirl83 Fuck yeah, it got down to 34 degrees a couple days ago and last night I was driving through hail. Plus rain, rain, so much rain.

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

Got three rabbit tractors built. They're just waiting for me to install doors and add the hutch part now. But I'm afraid this one day of sun is another tease.... More rain tomorrow!

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

@ratgirl83 Yeah, those big orange buckets. You can decorate it if you want it to look nice...

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

I gave in and bought some plants. The peppers and tomatoes are in the ground! Now I'll probably stalk a few more garden centers to find something more novel....

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

@ratgirl83 That was my Origional plan some 15 years ago. Sigh.

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

@nopenopenope_88 Yep, got one of each of those going now as well as a butternut squash and pumpkin. I need some watermelons I think!

@ratgirl83 Lovely but I have heard a lot of complaints it doesn't fit US building code in most areas.... They're usually shipped in from China. 😢

Sigh. Looks like I have a few more months with Daisy before I have to put her out of her misery. Going to freshen up her tattooes and travel hard! Let her go out with a bang.

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

Daisy's check engine light is on, another plumber is set to come over to fix the water pressure, and chipmunks ate my first round of tomato plants. This is a week of minor annoyances. Bring it on....

@DarkCloudTweets I'd revert to the toddler method - point at something that looks good and make a hungry gesture. 😋

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

Well.... Randomly deciding to read a novel narrated by an Australian teenage girl is one way to learn suspiciously hilarious sounding vocabulary....

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

@ratgirl83 Then after the seedlings are done there's some straight seed to ground planting I need to do - peas, beans, corn, cukes.... Did I forget to order sugar pumpkins?? Well whatever. Gardening gives me peace.

Friend: "If you spent half the amount of time that you spend screwing with Sweetheart Swindlers on trying to find an actual man you'd be married by now."

SHHHHH. Trolling scam artists is way more fun that dating.

@ratgirl83 Not that one no. He was just an amusing distraction while I was taking breaks from prepping my garden. 40+ beefsteak tomatoes (all colors) are planted. Got another 40 cherry tomatoes of diff varieties. Then honey dew, turnip, watermelon, & sweet dumpling.

@nopenopenope_88 All you can do is try to let her know you're there if she needs help and keep doing what you're doing. It really sucks witnessing this shit go down but you're doing the righ thing. Thanks for caring.

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

@DarkCloudTweets I hope not, that sounds like it could cause disease...

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

@ratgirl83 Oh fuck nooo, I wouldn't put up with that bullshit. *I* won't even stay in the same room with a known criminal pedophile much less let them around any kids! And yes - that does mean an instant no contact policy, even with relatives,and yes I've had to implement it numerous times.

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

I can feel my brain working again. Is this what vitamin D does?!

[Easily Distracted by Paisleys @TyphaniBrooks]

@ratgirl83 How did you know the father of your children? Relatives? Teachers? Camp counsellors? Other children? Obviously vigilance is always needed but a polyamorous household shouldn't have higher incidences of abuse then mainstream children living their daily lives around people.
