It annoys me to no end that even Dad said the teachers told them there was something odd about me. And he doesn't even think autism is a thing.
And recognizing neurodivergence helps bring context and understanding to navigating life. I'll probably never have a formal diagnosis but the number of memes, videos and other bits I've been sent by friends and family over the last 5 years "this is so you!" is telling 😂.
Learning you're neurodivergent doesn't make life easier... but it does help you target your strategies so they're actually effective.

This is entirely not surprising
New evidence on carbon sequestration in soils implies a more important role for no-dig gardening and no-till agriculture than previously thought.

Not just trees: Most of the carbon sequestered on land is stored in soil and water, study finds
Recent studies have shown that carbon stocks in terrestrial ecosystems are increasing, mitigating around 30% of the CO2 emissions linked to human activities.

39C yesterday, 30C overnight, under 20C now. I think I've got whiplash.
At least the ryegrass is going to be happy, the paspalum shuts down at a sniff of cool weather.

"I was concerned it may have been sick or injured, and made a snap judgement to pick up the joey and see if this was the case. I ran, not to rip the joey away from its mother, but from fear she might attack me."

Now this is an article I never thought I'd see for Australia
We have 4 cats. We had one at our share farm dairy for a while & the mouse population around the feeders was gone fast
Unfortunately the cats not there now & rats chewed through the cable for the electric motor a few months later

Working dogs are famous but what about working cats?
For thousands of years farmers have kept cats for their talents at catching rats and mice, and now there are calls for people working the land to be able to claim tax deductions their health and upkeep,

I take little videos of things for non farming friends just to show it's not that hard to drive "big" machinery.
The 4440 and seeder is medium at best, but certainly big for this farm set up.
The corners in the smaller night paddocks are tight, the main irrigation channel causes triangles.

I just told Johnny off for this one. Too close to the bone 😂😂
The doctor acknowledged that the patient felt like it is International Women's Day and that today's date is March 8th, but denied that it means today is actually IWD.
