a day in the life

Another day spent putzing around in the yard.  I had made plans with my sister to venture out so I didn't have a clear plan for today.  Then she bailed on me.  She'd already spent her four hours or so in the yard and was tired.  She gets up a lot earlier than I do and Sunday is even slower for us.

Now it was already too late in the day even for me to get started on some sort of major project and the unprecedented coolness of this May is starting to give way to our usual weather.  

I still have so much to do just in the gardens I have and still have a few plants to find permanent spots for but that all involves digging and I didn't feel like digging today I guess.  

So I spent the day flitting around from one task to another.  I was busy all day, coming in about 6, but I don't know exactly what I did.  I watered, I did some pruning, I repotted some succulents, I cleaned the evening primrose out of one part of a flower bed, I took some pictures, I cut some of the Easter lilies and brought them in.  

Oh, the house smells so good.  

I haven't been to the gym in weeks except for yoga every Friday morning.  I can get there for that.  I was going to go today but by 4, I still had a lot to do.  Ha.  I still have a lot to do but I wasn't ready to quit.  I consoled myself by telling me that I was still being very active.

Next weekend, the grandkids are coming out and the boy owes me some physical labor in the yard in return for the money to buy a new board for his skateboard so hopefully next Sunday we'll get a lot done.

Now the weekend is over and I need to get a sketch done tomorrow before we head into the city to finish this last commission.
