I write all most every day of what goes on in our home in the garden and in the nursery. We are ordinance workers at the Manti Temple on the Tuesday morning shift and the Saturday evening shift. In addition there are several trips to Utah county a couple of times a month and a few short trips to other mountain west areas. Our family is most important to us. All of our children live in Utah except one who lives in Kentucky.

Today
I worked all morning in house six pruning the suckers off the tomato plants. I wore a long sleeve shirt and exam gloves to keep my arms and hands clean. Some of the suckers were three feet long. Others were much shorter. I have decided that it is a full time job keeping them pruned. There are new ones every week. Many of the plants have ripe tomatoes. I cut what I thought was the sucker, but cut the plant off near the ground. It was loaded with Juliet tomatoes.
Insects ate some of the plants that I transplanted yesterday. I sprayed the twice today.
I planted another 606 jumbo tray with Peaches and Cream corn seed. When the corn already growing is harvested I will replace it with new transplants.
I mowed the lawn. I thought today was Friday, but it is Thursday.
Some insects are eating our pole bean plants. I went out with a light at 10:30 tonight and there were earwigs on the plants and on the ground. I came back with a sprayer and hopefully I will poison them.
