Weekend Photos

Before I start, I just want to let you know that I signed the training contract today, though there were no dates or how many hours per day/week on it. I asked her about it, but she said that she'd add them later. Weird. Had it been a real job contract, I wouldn't have signed it without knowing my working hours, but since it's only a training contract, if there's something wrong on the paper, I'm sure the unemployment office won't accept it. Before I can start, the unemployment office must accept it first and then send me a copy of it, but I THINK I may start the training next week for around 3 months. So I'm gonna be busy again! :-D

On Saturday we helped my in-laws cover the strawberry field with a net. While doing so, a hare scurried away from one of the corners. It jumped so faasssttttt to the neighbour's field ha ha ha...

Here are the pics...


Next pic: FIL was putting some poles so that it'd make it easier for us to pick the strawberries later on.


Next pic: Notice the yellow clip on the net? Yeah...MIL, R2, and R2's brother had to put clips on the net all around the field to make sure that it stayed there.


Here are some other things that my MIL has grown.



Below is a pic of ruohosipuli or chives. The greenery next to it was the place where we planted potatoes a while back.


A close-up pic of the flower he he...


Next pic: I have NO idea what flower this is, but it's VERY tiny he he he...





A close-up pic of the flowers in the above pic:

OK, time for me to blog-hop...

  2. The tiny flowers - do they smell great? They look like lavender to me.

    And my chives are so tiny in comparison to yours.

  7. Yeah, me too! I won't sign my employment contract blindly, but since it's only a training contract, I think the working hours can be amended later. Hope you will have a fun and fruitful time during your training, Amel. :)

    Love the farm, ever since I've been playing the farm town apps, I'm kind of excited when hearing about farming hahahaa...
