It's been a humdinger of a day! I feel like I've been beat up. My garden is looking better though and I just get more excited everyday watching the changes.
I took 2 chairs and a little table and set it up out in the gazebo. Now I'll have a place to eat my lunch on these beautiful warm days when it's just the birds and me. Tomorrow I'm having a fried ham, with sliced onion and chickweed sandwich for lunch. I found a small patch of chickweed and it will be a delight on a sandwich.
I noticed that the dandelions are popping up all over the place along with the violets. Tomorrow I'll be home by myself all day and it's a day that I get to pretty much do whatever I want and perhaps I'll pay with the dandelions and violets!! Tonight I grabbed a hooded sweatshirt, my glasses, a good book and went out to the herb garden and sat on my bench and read for about an hour. It's amazing to be reading and then all at once realize that you've been absorbed in a book - you raise your head and look around you and the birds are grazing in the garden right next to you with no thought to the fact that there's a human sitting right there. Oh it's just lovely!
