Yesterday was my birthday, I’m now 36 years old and didn’t feel doing any writing. As of late I’ve been less motivated to write and generally felt low energy, my guess is allergies since I shouldn’t be as tired as I feel. We’re now in the last month before the new baby comes and asContinue reading “31 July 2024”

Another satisfying week, for the first time since I’ve moved here over two months ago I’ve finally mowed all of the grass on my property. The grass on the West side gets covered in shade by the tree line leaving it to grow slower. The bees are also on the West side making it theContinue reading “10 May 2024”

The animal friend in today’s photo is a pretty moth I met on the same porch my bird friend hangs out on. The moth was willing to let me take some up close photos which is great since there is a lot of detail on it’s body. My report on yesterday was so-so, the beesContinue reading “25 April 2024”

This was the third times I’ve interacted with the bees and it’s still an unsettling endeavor, IContinue reading “17 April 2024”

Releasing the queen bee went well and hopefully she decides to stay. The bees didn’t eat as much as I thought they would, which was good, I was afraid they’d go through all the food I gave them and be starving in a day because I don’t know how much bees eat. I had leftContinue reading “9 April 2024”

Another good weekend, our first normal weekend at the new house as my wife has been away doing new job training until now. The bees are off and running, on Saturday I dumped three pounds of bees into the hive and they’ve been looking good. Once I’m done here I’m going to release the queenContinue reading “8 April 2024”

A fairly uneventful morning on the farm today, I decided to slow things down and get some rest. Of course there’s no rest with a toddler, but I can at least minimize my extra curriculars to get me through the week. On Thursday I’ll have to record the podcast and Friday I need to getContinue reading “13 March 2024”
