early morning

Ah, yet another prairie picture. Love the prairies. I wonder if where you are born stays with you in your genetics somewhere and you are drawn back to it time and again? For me, it is the big open sky, the yellow's against the blues, the sun, the sparkling snow and crazyass winter temps that let you know you are indeed alive (and have all your body parts intact), the people, the trees, the wide open spaces. You?

Huzzy is snorchestra-ing. I am up early reviewing ASL. Having a nice cuppa.

I brought home some candy-stripe phlox, lavender and thrift yesterday - perennials to plant. Now just where ;0. Once we get the dirt piled up outside - re-fresh the soil - out they will go. Now, the black, funky tv trays will stay in the window with their planty-wares until it is time. Also bought some multiplier onion bulbs and garlic.....I must peek at planting times for all of the loot - I do need to start some pepper seeds and I think I can plant the sweet peas outside already....Two weeks till May Long! RoMo has some rhubarb for me - she will lop a root off of her main plant....and I just want to pick up some cosmos from work. O, their faces were open yesterday and I was very tempted to pick up a pack or two...but window space is cramped (unless I bring up the downstairs card table..hmmmmm...hahahaha). I was also spying Irises yesterday - so beaut - and bleeding heart bushes - clematis - hydrengea...will get huzzy over to view next week - want to snap up that lovely lovely blue pot for the yard - I think I know what size to buy.....and we'll get more plants for the backyard, shaded corner.

More coffee please. Off I go. I feel like I've been way too busy lately. I'm not good with multi-banana juggling I'm afraid....so need to take some downtime and moodling time and also plan-out time so I can stay on top of the bananas........will ride my bike sat and sunday!

Happy mothers day to all you mothers........your task is great and your love is grand and your humor abounds.....recongnizing your strength and perserverance and wit and courage and willingness to have your heart walk around outside your body....and to wake up everyday and start it all over again. I salute you! your compassion and lovingness makes the world go round. So, to gw's, Bron, Nels, K(first mama day!), Dlee, B, mamajama, RoMO, vel....may you be surrounded by love. ;)
