Monday was a good day -- ordinary, but one of those unexpectedly nice days.
It started with my morning "things" that included a bit more of a yoga "workout" and an easy 3 mile walk to rest my back. On the walk I dropped off a couple of rocks (and borrowed 2 more). I was down at the creek fire pit scoping a place and I just missed stepping on a big black rat snake (harmless and helpful snake -- but STILL!). Hightailed it out of there before I got a picture.
Quick shot of the big face rock I left on the stairs -- and my shadow. No lingering after the snake sighting so no time to get my shadow out of the way!
Afternoon was hanging with hubby on the porch (and the 4 dogs). It was a breezy afternoon and we chatted before he left for the airport.
When he got on the road, I worked on Spanish, prepped the big rocks I grabbed earlier and happened to check FB (related to something else). A new neighbor posted free veggie plants because she ran out of room in her garden. Yes please! Got a squash and a tomato plant PLUS some great gardening information. She has a beautiful garden already this year. All from seeds -- starts in January and has an indoor greenhouse. Wow. She's a good resource for my itty bitty garden and the big gardening woes.
I ordered another raised pot and am heading to Pike's for more supplies. I need to move some things around after talking with her. I can't tell what is growing well in my pots and what isn't. I might be too much of a helicopter mom and killing my plants with attention -- hah!
Life coaching this afternoon. Stay tuned ...
Hoping for anther peaceful day. Lots of me-time doing things that ground me. I'm getting more and more relaxed with this lifestyle -- gardening, creative stuff, plant-based cooking, Spanish, etc. I like it.
Oh, and got a goodie from Etsy. I've been eyeing this bag for a bit -- 1970s and my current favorite color. It's big enough to actually use (i.e. fit glasses and phone). The owner packaged it in a vintage scarf. Got me in a mood for more vintage bags that I can use (I have some evening clutches) -- 2 other bags on the way. Stay tuned.
Hubby arrived in Paris and is on a second flight to his destination in France. He comes home Friday night.
As I said, I'm looking forward to another good day -- but the "second day jinx" is on my mind. Have a good day -- next day is the pits. Not scientific, but it seems to hold true lately (hormones -- I think when I get a big up, it's followed by a big down). Fingers crossed.
I guess I (we) can decide to have a good day -- so let's have a good day. Stay well. Later gators.
