What Did You Do This Morning

Rain and thunderstorms predicted
sun brightly shining.
Did not sleep well last night
but the lettuce seeds, cilantro,
parsley and dill
are calling me to put
them in the ground.

I pick up my 50 year old hoe
that "no one" is allowed to use
but me.  This hoe and I share
many memories...

Cilantro and parsley in their
pot from last year.
Dill sprinkled on the ground
and a few lettuce plants are
in the small square foot garden
along with onion sets and mixed
lettuce seeds.  The Egyptian onions
have returned from experiment
last Spring.

So pleased my hollyhock that seeds
originally came from daughter when
she lived in Massachusetts - like
their new home in the country.

Finished and looked up saw a
beautiful Red Bird watching me.

Almost lunch time - I am finished

for the day.....
