Because I feel like blabbering... muuhahahahaaa

A picture of my coldframeImage via Wikipedia

It's been a cool (cold actually) and busy day. Blackie has been attacking everyone like crazy, so I moved his winter feral home to the side of the cottage. It's now stuffed inside a medium size dog igloo with his heating pad. It's almost as warm in there as it is in the cottage.

From there, I started renovating the dog pen where my nephew kept his annoying dog for awhile. I'm turning it into a greenhouse (GH from here out). It was the only solution I could come up with that would keep the cats out of the plants when I put them out to harden.

It's also going to be my herb garden. Yip! The only way to keep the cats from digging up the plants and keep Jeffie from spraying them. Some will go in raised beds and the others in pots. If there's room I'd like to put in a cold frame. BTW, the cold frame pic above isn't mine. I just put it up for those who don't know what a cold frame looks like.

Next, was transfer all the stuff I'll be using in the GH, pots, trays, etc. from the side of the cottage to their new home.

In between I tinkered with the compost pile, straightened up my tools in the barn and got my youngest nephew to get the hand plow down from the side of the old shed and put it in the barn, and put a new pile of hay over the cats garden. (hand plow is identical to mine, but the pic came from elsewhere.)

Wish I'd had thought of filming the cat fights over the catnip I planted for them last year. They were wild! LOL

Weather permitting, I'll try to get some pics of my little projects tomorrow. : )

Outa here for the night!
