It's Friday, which means it's time to look ahead to the projects for the weekend and next week.
A major reason I choose to engage in social media as much as I do, is for MOTIVATION and ACCOUNTABILITY.
I want to challenge my Homesteading Steemers to do the same! Here is some of what I plan to accomplish this week:
IN THE GARDEN
- [ ] Re-treat garden with neem oil and Bt
- [ ] Pull weeds for 30 minutes PER DAY no excuses!
- [ ] Fertilize with fish emulsion & Epsom salt
- [ ] Make pickled jalapenos with the excess 'peno harvest
- [ ] Pull up remaining crookneck squash, lost to powdery mildew
- [ ] Treat winter squash with milk solution
- [ ] Start planning fall garden and order seeds if needed
HOMESCHOOL
- [ ] Finish standardized testing by 6/28 and mail
- [ ] Type up end of year progress reports and file
- [ ] Prep for summer schedule - aim to start first week of July!
- [ ] Library visit
- [ ] Summer reading program progress
HOMESTEAD
- [ ] Make another batch of laundry soap
- [ ] Air-dry clothes all week
- [ ] Harvest wild black cherries
- [ ] Check all batteries
LEARNING & GROWING
- [ ] try DIY mayonnaise with fresh eggs (and write a blog post, naturally)
- [ ] try out a new bread recipe
- [ ] learn more formatting tricks in Markdown
- [ ] 3 blog posts on website
- [ ] Daily Steem activity for 30 minutes - 1 hour per day
- [ ] Finish reading The World Without Us by Alan Weisman
Who's with me? Please UPVOTE and RESTEEM! Check back next Friday to see how I did! I'm starting now, headed to hang out a load of laundry.
