Have done a bunch of fall planting, with mixed results. Swiss chard is coming in well, but the rest is spotty. Maybe due to the lack of rain. I have tried to water, but there is no substitute for rain.
I tilled up the old goat pen and planted half, the other half this week.
We have another litter of pigs due next week. We have been selling pigs of late. Keeps the lights on.
Today is the feast of Sts. Cornelius and Cyprian. Connor (Conor) is the Irish version of Cornelius, so today is a name saint day here. We will pray the liturgy of the hours (MP) together and have some dessert later.
Jersey is still giving milk and lots and lots of cream. More than we can make butter with. Muscadine harvest is almost over. Mrs. Curley has made some jam and has another batch to go.
For me, lots of work to get done, including some catch up on the boys school work.
Oremus pro invicem!
