Yep....we got a couple of inches here.....Had two good rains push through......
Sprayed BT on the garden. I found out what was eating all the plants-cutworms. Garden is doing better this year after all the soil work. PH is holding at 6.4. Next year should be better after the soil has a chance to sit.

Cut the grass around the house, roads & barn.
Watered the garden, porch pots & hanging baskets.
Spaghetti squash are starting to get 'runners', so I started weaving them up the bull panels.

Trimmed more trees and hauled limbs to burn pile...........
Watered the garden.
Went to the hospital for my operation. They started at 1100 hrs & they 'woke me up' at 1345 hrs. They discharged me & I was home about 1515 hrs. Transportation & prescription pickup was provided by my '2nd wife' (neighbor), who was there through the whole thing as my '1st wife' (Mrs. Ranch) had to stay home to deal with Dieter.

Sounds like all went well. I am glad to hear you are home and doing good..................
Sounds like you are on your way back. For the time being, you won't lose your man card for not servicing both wives during the recovery.
^^^ LOL!!! THAT in all actuality, would open up a range of options as to my cause of death!!! Right now, I prefer to just drink as needed, propped up in a chair on the back porch & looking at the garden. Mrs. Ranch is doling out my 'medication' as needed to prevent the possibility of an 'intentional overdose'. Dieter is in charge of providing all the immoral support he can render for both of us.
Made buttermilk bread.

LOL that's funny, right there................
Day 2 of recovery... Kinda hurts to walk, but coughing is a killer. I had planned a project to keep me busy & give me a sense of accomplishing something during this period. I started covering our library books with 2 mil Mylar to protect the dust jackets 17 down & another 1200+ to go.
Mrs Ranch watered the garden & I watched.

Glad to hear your recovery is progressing. I checked my garden calendar and i had replanted onions the middle of January. Should be ready the end of May or early June. Potatoes are showing signs of being ready in a couple of weeks.
Day 3 of recovery... feeling somewhat better although the extent of the bruising is now apparent, no wonder it hurts to walk.
I got another 20 of our library books covered in Mylar.
