Well, hello there. One more day left of February. Woot.
Okay, so yesterday, I started working in the gardens again. Lemme back up a smidgen... I went shopping yesterday and before I did the groceries, I picked up 4 bags of dirt and a packet of 16 gladiola bulbs. This prompted me to get my ass moving on the gardening. Thus, I spent 45 minutes digging and weeding in the bed where I intend to put the glads. I stopped when I was tired. This morning, I am definitely paying for it. Oh, holy night, am I paying for it. This should pass once I've spent some time moving around and getting those muscles limber. I have a lot of work to do and I ain't got time for this achy crap.
My daffodils are about 2 inches high and so are my hyacinths. I removed the leaves off those. They're all yellow from being hidden, but they're not warped and retarded, so that's a win. They'll green up in no time.
The 4 bags of dirt are for planting the tree seeds.
I need to do more shopping today. I forgot some things. Derp. Lucky for me, I have to go pick up Hubs' prescriptions and I have to hit the bank anyway, so it's not really an extra trip.
By the way, honey from the Dollar General is way better than honey from Wallyworld. Bigger container for about the same price and it tastes better.
I've been doing pretty good about not thinking about the old job, but I have to drive by there to get to pretty much everywhere, and when I drive by, I start thinking about it again. Also, I saw something yesterday that they're hiring again, which got my brain working. I hope they didn't lose anyone I know, that business is good for them which means more techs, and that they've just learned they probably did need to replace me instead of deleting the position. It's neither here nor there, but it's on my mind.
Finn doesn't want me to finish this blog post. He's in my lap demanding attention, and it's hard to type with 13 pounds of cat in my lap wanting pets and scritches and loves. He's such a sweetie.
And on that note, I'm outta here. Have a great day!
It is Thursday, isn't it. Huh. Yay for gardening, honey, planting tree seeds, and cats. As for the old work? You had some friends there. It's natural to care about people if not the actual stuff.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a weird week. I'm vehicle-less again. Only's new SUV's check-engine light came on. There were 80 people on their list for a loaner from the service department. Not sure what that says about Ford vehicles. LOL
Not much else going on. I've been a lumpen re: writing, marketing, and stuff. I have a book coming out Saturday. Have I done a newsletter? Nope. I have a book that needs to be set up for print. Have I done the preliminary so I can do that? Nope. I need an energy boost.
Enjoy the warm weather but remember to check the average last date of freezes for up there. It's April 15 here and David the weather guru says don't be him and put stuff out too early! LOL
Okay, in this case, I need to get "on my butt" and keep my hands on the keyboard but do something productive instead of surfing X or playing Bubbleshooter.
Later, tater!
