Thank God, my dog is starting to recover and is already walking well. The vet prescribed the right medication and she is doing much better.

This year there were severe frosts and bright sunshine at the same time, and my bamboo turned from bright green to yellow. This is a good test of its strength, and it already experienced such frosts in 2020, but then there were no such prolonged frosts.

It was a hard day and I didn't want to do anything, but I had to! While the dog was sleeping, I was making seedlings in snails made from insulation. I liked this method last year.

Thank you for the kind words, Joylin. The vets gave a bad prognosis because the dog is already 12 years old, but today I found a good vet who has already saved my animals. We did tests and he said that it was a viral disease that affected coordination, and not problems with the spine and brain, as other doctors said, and there is a good chance that my friend will recover. I really want this and believe that she will recover.

These two photos show the difference: in the first one, the trees are planted on hills and are not flooded, while in the second photo, it's a traditional planting and the tree is in a puddle of water.

I continue to tie up trees, apricots, and cherries. The last photo shows a fully formed apricot tree that doesn't need pruning or tying—just cut the ropes that were used to tie the branches last year. Last year, it survived the spring frosts well, didn't get any rot, and produced a good harvest. We'll see how it overwinters.

Thanks for the kind words. It may sound strange, but all these everyday problems actually help you stay sane. Rockets and drones are flying, and you're sitting there wondering how to insulate a battery or repair a gas boiler. In any case, it's cheaper than antidepressants. Spring has already arrived, and it's time to get ready for winter.

There's a lot of sun now, the snow has started to melt heavily, and the reeds have helped my chickens again; now they have a dry place outside.

I couldn't figure out what was bothering me. I went to the electric meter and heard the circuit breaker sparking. I was without power for several days in the winter because of this problem, and again. The electrician probably didn't tighten the contacts properly when he replaced it, or it failed because of blackouts. It's good that there's plenty of sun, so I can wait for a replacement.
