Time for more hugs! 4 days ago

do my back-porch projects (read all 12 entries…)
Probably as much as possible, they're done. 4 days ago

My husband doesn’t seem motivated to go to the hardware store & get the drill bits, & I have WAY too much on my plate to take on that job myself. So I decree that these projects are done.

The porch is looking really nice—tonight I added a plant, one that had gotten too overgrown for the greenhouse window. The herbs are thriving. We have already used basil, chives, parsley, & oregano from the planters multiple times.

One weird thing, though: this year a squirrel or bird has fallen in love with the dirt in my various porch pots. We never catch it in the act, but every time I go out to check there are holes dug in the pots, next to the plants. I keep filling them with fresh soil & sweeping up the dirt that has been tossed onto the porch floor. So far all the plants are surviving this just fine. Is this a common syndrome? Funny.

but may they turn out to be great fun, satisfying, moving, wonderful, & all that.

And may your Nuptials be a doorway into long, rewarding years of shared life!
