Days with fair weather, long summer days, not too hot, not too cold, when I can be outside and have things to do out there, make me happy.
Not a
lot to do. I don't want to kill myself. I like to work among the plants for about an hour, then come in and do something else, then go out again. All day and half the night, in and out I go. It's probably my ideal day.

| Bleeding heart basking in evening light. |
After picking up groceries on my way home from work, I made supper and walked out to the field to see Scott and got another dozen bedding plants tucked into their summer homes. That's almost all! Just a few more packs to find homes for. Damn it feels good to see them where they want to be. Now to watch them go crazy, growing. The wind has been hard on them but now that they're in the ground they'll withstand it better. I hope.
Sounds a lovely day! And that bleeding heart is so...right.
ReplyDeleteIt was a lovely day! I neglected to mention the seven-and-a-half hours spent sitting in an office chair, which I have always known is not healthy — but now there seems to be science to prove it. Sitting for 30 minutes or more messes up your body's processes, according to an interview on CBC Radio last night. Fortunately, just moving around for five minutes sets things back in order. Whew! I will keep jumping up to walk over to the Canadian Oxford Dictionary, or to the Canadian Press Caps and Stylebook, rather than keeping them at my desk. Anything to keep the blood flowing ...
DeletePretty flowers, wish I was more interested in gardening.
ReplyDeleteDo you just buy a couple pre-planted pots, then, Teresa?
DeleteI'm at the moderately drunk end of a birthday so wanted to connect with you although I only paid attention to your photo.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are having a rather wonderful birthday then, Lorna. Happy No-Hangover Tomorrow!
