Finally! A weekend with nothing else to do but get things organized!
So, today and tomorrow, I'm going to concentrate on my little garden tasks. I have a bunch of houseplants that require some tending to, and some lovely roses that I just got (June is almost here, and June seems synonymous with roses), and of course, all the tomato plants, basil, and whatnot. I have a couple grey-blue stoneware pots that I put flowers in, and set at the front, welcoming me home each day with their cheery colors. I generally pick between impatiens, petunias, and the like. This year I've got some amazing orange-and-yellow marigolds (also good for cooler times of the year) and some gorgeous lobelia that will go into a hanging pot.
I wasn't much of a flower person for a long time, but in past years I've made an effort to at least recognize the more common flowers, and I quite enjoy being able to recognize them, and plant them around a little bit. They are always a joyful sight to me.
Oh, yes, also, some writing. I have three or four story ideas sitting in my brain that I'm mulling around, rolling about. I should make time to get them out. If I have the garden area in order, I think sitting on the porch, outside, with the flowers blooming, with my laptop will be an excellent creative space to start to work on writing.
