In or Out

The question of the day... In or Out?

The house is torn up from my painting... and I need to put it back together but where to start... Organizing and decluttering is part of the process.  I look around put a picture back up, put the thermostat back on the wall... have another cup of coffee and go outside.

It rained last night and the garden loved it.  I don't have much planted in there but spinach and lettuce and peas and onions.  I took my little seedlings and some rubber gloves and decided to plant.  My neighbor stopped by and brought me some scallions... Isn't it nice to share!  And nice to chat with her... She also gave me some beans to plant at the end of the month... Italian green beans... He mother-in-law brought them back from Italy over 20 years ago... So they save the seeds each year and now I can do the same.

I put in tomatoes, cilantro, basil, and parsley.  Then cabbage and broccoli, and brussell sprouts.  Then turnips and peppers.  I think that was it... but it took all morning... then I found the really nice long handled shower head  sprinkler and put it on the hose... but no water.  my hubby turned it off .... :/  So I had to use a watering can and haul water from the garage to the garden... Getting my exercise.... :)

Then I pulled mint out of my front bed.... it smelled so good.  I left some but pulled it from where other things were growing.... If you want a fragrant ground cover that will cover quickly... get some mint!

Pulled some weeds, cleaned off the front porch... How many cans of lighter fluid need to be out there next to the hibachi... there were 4 plus two bags of charcoal briquets,  the briquet starter, and the Christmas tree stand... and a pair of skis, and 2 pair of shoes.... good grief...

Put all that stuff away and then swept the porch and walk.... I put the fountain out I just need to find the right extension cord...  Then I filled the bird feeders.  Oh my does it look nice.

I'm so tired I don't think I can do a thing inside today.... So the answer is out!
