I’m in so much pain, I am cross-eyed!!  I’ve been going to a chiropractor and I am confident that I will eventually experience renewed health.  But this weekend was miserable!!!!  I couldn’t garner enough energy this Monday morning to drive twenty-plus miles for my appointment.  I didn’t have the desire to take my dirty clothes to the nearby laundry room!!  As the morning grew bright and sunny, and warm, I felt compelled to spend time on my patio.  (When I am working on a manual labor project, I forget the pain.)  I evaluated the “stuff” I could use to support an upside-down tomato plant.  I had a lot of odd “stuff” under a tarp… and I needed to spread the items to see what I could use.  Change of plans: I could use those heavy-duty plastic pipes as a prop against the eave.  Actually, the upside-down container is attached to the pipe so there isn’t any weight on the eave.  Well, there isn’t any “weight” right now because I have yet to put soil in the container.  ~~  I still have that galvanized pipe for another (yet to be determined) project.  Furthermore, I also have a lot of PVC pipe that might be useful.  

(A blog can be frustrating because it’s like reading the back of the book first. On Feb. 11th I asked the question: Enough!?  On Feb. 16th I wrote about Lorraine’s garden.  On Feb. 18th I wrote about One Track Mind and Doing Research re: Tomato Plants.   Today’s blog shows you where the earlier thoughts brought me.)

Postscript, Thursday, Feb. 23, 2012: Change of plans!! Now I think I will set the plastic poles in a large container of freshly prepared cement. Then I can move it around (if necessary). I don’t want to risk damaging the eave!!
