The hardest part for me is to get started on my work and post. Once I get a flow of what I want to talk about and show. It becomes much easier. I hope the same holds true for what I am wanting to do at this time.
As you can see above. The poinsettias are still alive and growing. That is a good thing.
Since I will be adding this post to the "gardening tag." I thought the poinsettias would be good to show.
Friends. It has been a long drawn out project for me to get done what I wanted to do with my selected garden spot.
At times, life gets in the way. And at other times. I have other interests. Such as increasing my knowledge about cryptos and how to take advantage of the paradigm change I recently wrote about.
But here we are. Some more top soil to be distributed out on the garden spot. I have already added several bags full over the last month or so. It takes a lot for the area I have plotted out for the present time.
Here is a photo of the top soil in the bags before I empty them on the grass mulch.
Then I will work at spreading it out to cover a little more of the area you can see. Yes. I need more. But I am already covering grass mulch and will add wood mulch on top of it. I will be adding over the months and years.
If---I stay here that long?
After I had spread the top soil out a little. I put this mulch on that I had purchased a day or two ago.
With the mulch now added to this point of the plan. I will be adding only a little more as I go forward to the planting and setting out what we choose to do. That is unclear at this time. What to plant?
It can get very cold here at times. Too much effort and money can quickly go down the drain of nothingness. Ha
I have another source of mulch that I show here. The process is rather slow in the open air.
I know how to speed the process up. But, we are not off to the races here anyway. lol
Since that part of what I want to do has been mostly finished for now. I look at other parts of the yard to see what needs to be done. I really like working in the yard. But the battle of time is raging between Steemit, cryptos, and yard and garden work.
I literally could spend all day, every day on the computer looking at and for opportunities that are there to be had. I had never thought in my wildest dream. That this day would come. Life changes can overtake us slowly and silently as well. Then we have to deal with the scattered debris. Amazing
Do you see what I see? This needs to be cut back a lot so that it can grow and spread out again. Ha
Yes, it seems like foolishness. But, that is what we do. Now you know that I had set this out some years ago in complete agreement. Ha (Not)
But we always do what must be done. Or else......................................
Oh, you wanted to know what the "else" is? Ha ha
Here is my mantra. If it doesn't look very pretty. Or if it doesn't grow food or fruit. Bye bye. lol
So, is this very pretty? You decide. We all have different eyes..........................
The slayer has started. Well, maybe just a trimmer at this point. Ha ha
Are you ready for the finished product? He did it. Shame...........................
Fear not my Friends. It will grow back to look even Bittrex than it did before.
And I can go back to hanging around Steem and Litecoin while it grows.
What is this? Oh no, another monster to deal with. For now. I would rather just Lite____away.
We'll come back another day.
What else did you do or see Francis?
Well, the raccoons or the armadillos are digging in my garden.
They have been digging around the plants too. The three poinsettias I had growing in the garden have suffered a lot because of their digging.
But, they haven't touched my little lemon tree. But, just in case. I took one off and used it to sweeten my (unsweetened tea, 
Publix has the special for tea. Buy 1. Get 2. You know I like a bargain. To good to pass up.
If you go. Just walk on by the "pound cake and ice cream." Unless you want to add a few pounds. lol
Before we go. Let's take a look at one of the pretty flowers that grow here. Some start and grow themselves.
And some I reset. Such as this little flower.
If you are pretty. Very good. You get to stay. If you are not so pretty. You need to earn your keep. lol
That is my thinking. And that is why I have to labor so hard. I am not so "pretty." Ha ha
Thank you for following along with my work and posting on Steemit.
And thank you Steemit workers and providers. We really appreciate your efforts.
Remember Friends. It isn't a monthly fee for us. We have been given an enormous opportunity.
And I believe we shall soon see all of our work well rewarded. What do you think?
Francis
