Summer Planting

You got lucky. 
You're welcome.
I'm not in the mood to reflect (or rant) this morning. 
Woke up groggy. 


Here are pictures of the garden as it stands now.


Garlic, tomato, pepper,
basil, radish seeds.

Greens, peas, herbs.

Flowers of some sort.
I totally forget the names

I forgot I bought 2 baby
sun hydrangeas from the market.



I bought more herbs and a strawberry plant from the farm yesterday. He also gave us cucumber plants that are wonky -- may or may not take, but they were free. It was a nice field-trip with my garden friend. I'm plant sitting her strawberry plant while she's on vacation. Fingers crossed I keep it alive.


I think I have crows in my backyard -- the big trees in the gully behind the house. I'm going to try to get a crow friend. Looking for unsalted peanuts to bribe them. Of course, Trader Joe's was out of them. I'll keep a look out.


A nurse friend who I worked with years and years ago reached out to say she retired and wanted to see what I was up to. That's so nice. I was thinking about her not long ago -- we had some crazy experiences at that job, and something reminded me of one of those nights. Guess that energy went out into the universe. 


The agenda today is a jumble and up-in-the-air. My cancel friend is giving rock painting with her granddaughter one more try today, but that's not until 4 o'clock. I have the day for a lot of things, but I'm groggy and not sure what I want to do. The only rule -- don't waste the day. I have options and chores and such. I'll look for a combination that feels good. Sometimes good is simply getting pesky things off a to-do list. 


It is Tuesday and I'm not hiking with the group again. Lots of reasons. I need another beat before I get back to this group. That's part of what I was going to chat about, but I don't feel like going down that rabbit hole this morning. 


On that note, I'm going to get something started to wake myself up. I'm sure I have plants that need tending somewhere hah. Have a good day. Later gators.
