Weekly Bi-Zekely?

zekely review.jpg

I used to get to do this every week. Relax at the beginning of the week, look through the photos on my phone to reflect on a busy week, recall what I had gotten up to, and discover what I had done that night that went far too late. Time has altered as schedule conspires to have me only get to steem for this every couple weeks.

So, you get twice as much Zeke per square paragraph!

I did so much damn work on so many things you KNOW I got my hands dirty again. Bringing on new opportunity while you try and do all the stuff you did before and then some.....sometimes you have to make a mess to clean one up.

Along the work line, I did get to climb through a haunted tomb of an attic. So I got that going for me....

The work was necessary though so one can afford too many damn blueberries. We are coming to the end of prime berry season and I have enough to earn wifepoints by giving them to other people. Little one made some blueberry muffins from some of the yield of a pleasant hour and a bit on the farm.

There was some me time as I got back to training jiu jitsu regularly again...kinda. I do need to train more and build back up the hours I spend doing it. So much fun, so cool to learn, healthy as anything and less likelihood I will snap on someone who feels compelled to feed me some bullshit! ;) Another year and another stripe. A black belt is a white belt who never quit.

There wasn't as much sailing as I would prefer but that is returning this week as well. What a break of the weekly routine in such a grand fashion.

I did also get to play a little golf in the most competitive family tourney of the year. I didn't take home the prize this year but broke 100 and had an amazing time.

Of COURSE there was a little beer. Afterall, it is summer, I have a status of Beerologist to uphold, and @detlev & the crew went from fun token to stakable to proof of stake through crowdfunding. I'll drink a nice bold sour to that!

I did wander around a nice town enough to crest 10k @actifit steps and take some big shots. It helps you live in the moment next time when you take a look at some of the neat angles you will see if you just look up from your rut!

There was a good amount of daddying and taxi duty as there was literally 4 baseball games and 2 practices in the last 6 days to end the season. Nothing to complain about though as it is mostly lounging in a camping chair with beer in the waterbottle.

I am apparently in the pepper business this year. You can check out the garden and pepper box I added this summer here https://steemit.com/gardenjournal2019/@zekepickleman/zeke-s-family-garden-midsummer-progress I am most curious as to how the Ghost Peppers will turn out. Among the hottest on the planet, will these add some serious heat to my hot sauce? Stay tuned.....

Coming Up:

Maybe a little spoiler alert is in order but I have a neat idea to combine art and garden even if you are a hack with pedestrian equipment. I bring the rain soon with something along these lines.

Looking back on this pic brings me back a few months, reminds me I never really finished the story, and will be given the chance to relive this crazy spectacle again at a festival in a couple weeks. Could be some serious fun again.

Looks like you got a lot of stuff done! And the bunch of blueberries really got my attention, I wonder how long I'll need to finish them, even if they're made into muffins...

There either seems to be too many or not enough. We err on the side of too many just to be safe!

So nice to be able to reflect on the things you do through some memorable photos! Great idea.

Looks like a good week. A few nice beers and golfing, that's awesome. Too many blueberries isnt a bad thing if you have someone to bake muffins for you. That might be a good problem to have haha

Sorry, you don't have enough staked BEER in your account. You need 10 BEER in your virtual fridge to give some of your BEER to others. To view or trade BEER go to steem-engine.com

It is silly that's what caught my eye? Looks like you have been busy. Wishing I had one of those buckets of blueberries. The area I am in is not an optimal location. The soil is too alkaline. I have sadly tried 3 bushes and the advice of local gardening 'experts' who have a few beautiful producing bushes. I did have one that looked like it was going to make it, but one of the dogs decided the garden was the coolest place to lay. He laid right up to the bush and smothered my strawberries. At least he smelled nice.

Haha!

Actually most of those things, I write knowing they will entertain myself than anyone else. I sprinkle them in among the explanations and images and giggle, assuming nobody will linger long enough to enjoy, let alone detect them.

Seems lately, more of those hooks are being bitten though. Either I am getting better at them or my list of supporters is becoming a true gift.
Either way, I award a unit of Steem basic income when it happens and I will register you for one when I am back at the computer.

Sincerely, thanks for reading.

That looks like a busy week.

Most my week was spent in doors. I did go on a nice walk down a nature trail that was cut into a forest. It had a nice little river that went thought it with a park bench next to it. Was nice and relaxing!

That sounds like a couple pictures and a #wednesdaywalk ready to go!

I live next to one of those and have to spend more time doing that.

I could say that it was quite a busy week for you there. Getting up and dirty in the attic, hope you didn't bump into anything up there lol. Good luck on that pepper business that you have going on there. I am wondering how you get them looking so healthy. We have bird's eye chili here but they always wither and die.

I think the key really is compost.

The first year, I made the big garden box and had a couple years worth of compost to mix in and the tomatoes went nuts. This year, the pepper box is brand new with evenly mixed soil /compost and the peppers are going nuts while the tomatoes not so much.

Additionally, I have them in full sun in the heat of the summer while the evenings cool off in this Canadian climate. So the new soil, hot days, cool nights might be the ticket.
