Today I cleaned out the gutters on my roof. That took a really long time and they were really dirty. some of them hadn't been cleaned out in so long that the leaves and stuff in them had rotted into compost in our gutters. While I was cleaning out the gutters I found like 20 snails! I don't have any idea how they all got there but there was a lot of them. My dad said that if I cleaned out all the gutters around our roof that I would earn $20! I don't know what I'm saving up for but I have a lot of money. We also worked on our garden today and we have six spaghetti squashes, lots of tomatoes, lots of beans, and a cucumber, even though yesterday we gave at least four spaghetti squashes to our neighbors. One of our neighbors that we gave a spaghetti squash to gave us some peppers from their own garden! Also, when we were were working on our garden we started pulling up the lettuce that we had grown, because it was just getting out of control, a bunch of white little (big) spiders started crawling everywhere! Our tomato plants have gotten even bigger than all of our lettuce plants combined. They have gotten so big that while I was out there my neighbor (who was also outside) looked over and said that there was a girl in the jungle! The plants are so big that we can barely reach inside of them to get to the tomatoes (that I think are growing right in the middle just to annoy us) so that we can make salsa or marinara or just give some to our neighbors.
