Digging Dirt

Good Morning. Feeling a bit low today, perhaps attributable to the gloom outside. On the positive, I have spent the prior two days working outside. Mowing (still not finished) weeding and transplanting hosta. Did you know they are part of the asparagus family? No wonder I like them so much. They are prolific spreaders, as are the ferns that have placed themselves in with the hosta, completely covering them from view. So, finding new homes, like I do every few years.

I have two large tubs that are placed in front of the silo for the summer. I have decided to transplant some of the many catnip plants growing everywhere into those pots and accent them with something colorful. Nature, and birds, have provided me with most of the landscaping, as well as for my son. They dug up some catnip last year for their cats and her native wild flower front yard.

If you don't hear from me for awhile it is because I am focusing on the tasks at hand, which will hopefully rid me of this malaise. Nothing dark, don't worry. Just there.
