Hello everyone, today is another day with good weather and a cool breeze at my garden house. This early morning, I started the day by taking a bath, getting dressed, and feeding my mother. Today, my mother seemed to be in a particularly good mood. Normally, my mother is a cheerful person who loves gardening. When she was still healthy, her health started to decline, so she had to stay in bed. Every morning, I would take care of my mother. It was one of the first things before starting other tasks, whether it was taking a bath or feeding her. My wife and I would help each other. Today, my mother seemed very happy. She ate very well today. While she was taking a bath, she still laughed cheerfully and was in a good mood as usual. This made me feel happy because even though the situation has changed, my mother still has a strong heart and is always full of love and brightness. For me, my mother is the one who gave me life. I will take care of her forever.
After my mother had finished eating and she slept well, I let her rest for 1-2 hours and then I started doing other tasks in Anantara Garden. As I said, today the weather is good with gentle sunshine to welcome the new day after many days of rain. I started by mixing fertilizer for leaf nourishment. The fertilizer I used is slightly brownish-black. When I finished mixing it, I poured it into a 20-liter bucket and then went out to spray the oil palm trees in Anantara Garden. Some of the oil palm trees in the garden have not received enough sunlight in the past, so they need special care and maintenance. Now I am accelerating their maintenance to make them strong and grow to their full potential. Carrying a 20-liter bucket of water is not easy. It is quite heavy, so I have to exert a lot of effort to spray, but it is also a good exercise.
After finishing the royal spraying work, I feel that today is quite a busy day because the food for the poultry that I raise has run out, so I have to go to the market to buy food to prepare for them. I am very lucky today. A customer ordered 30 duck eggs from my garden, so I took the opportunity to deliver the duck eggs at the same price as chicken eggs, making it friendly and worthwhile for customers. The eggs are organic. The shop that ordered the duck eggs is a Khanom Jeen shop, which my wife and I really like. Today is the second time that we have eaten Khanom Jeen at this shop. The taste is delicious, my wife really likes it. The noodles are soft, the soup is rich. I feel lucky to have found a good Khanom Jeen shop like this, the taste is delicious. Today is a good day in terms of both business and happiness.
After finishing eating Khanom Jeen, my wife and I drove into town to buy animal feed at our regular shop. After shopping, I headed to Trang Hospital to visit relatives. Before going up to visit, I stopped by a convenience store to buy souvenirs for the patients. After visiting relatives, on the way home, I stopped at the vegetable market as usual. Today, I bought various vegetables such as coriander plants and coriander seeds to plant. Because before, I planted some as well, but there was a problem: I didn't know the exact cause of what happened to my vegetables. They weren't strong and they slowly withered and died. So I had to solve the problem by buying new ones to plant and observing my vegetables. This is learning. I also bought vegetables, cabbage and betel leaves. My wife walked around looking at various vegetables. She chose both bitter melon and bitter gourd. She said that they are nutritious vegetables and are good for cooking. She likes to eat them a lot. So I let her buy whatever she likes. After buying vegetables, we drove home. But before going back, I stopped by my daughter's garden on the bank of the Trang River canal. The water had started to recede, so I used a knife to cut the grass that was growing around the base of the oil palm tree so that the oil palm tree would grow well without weeds bothering it.
But while While mowing the grass, I came across a swarm of small bees without realizing that they were there. I had used a knife to mow the grass and was stung by the bees several times until I had to stop and run away. It was an unexpected experience. Being stung by bees so many times made me have to temporarily stop working. I think next time I will be more careful. Then I drove back. On the way, I stopped to get some soil from my relative's house. It was soil that had been fermented with leaves. I brought that soil with a tricycle.
When I got back home, everything in the garden looked amazing. My pets ran to greet me excitedly. I couldn’t help but take a picture of them. They must be very happy that my wife and I came back. So I rewarded them with their favorite food. Not only the poultry, but also the 3 cows that had to be moved to a new place to eat grass. After taking care of the animals, I sat down and rested. It didn’t take much time. I started planting vegetables that I bought from the market. Coriander, cabbage, basil, and bitter melon that I chose in Pattaya. When the vegetables were planted, it was time to sit down and relax for a long time. I brought bread and crumbs from the bakery to feed the fish I raised. They liked it very much. There are many species of fish, most of them are herbivorous fish. Watching the fish swim back and forth in the evening like this, the atmosphere like this makes me feel relaxed and happy with the simple life, farming, raising animals, and being in the middle of nature. Today is another good day to do what I love and be in a place that I feel connected to. This is my story today.
