Real-ish Time


While weeding in the garden, despairing because the weeds sprouted so quickly that they gobbled all the kale and beets and half of the lettuce, I was singing along with Johnny Cash on his cover of "Hurt."

When I came to the lines,

"And you could have it all
My empire of dirt,"

I laughed.

Truth in a new form.

It's great exercise, right? You've had some warm weather up there. Today, we're 90 degrees and rain - blessed rain. Much better than 104. All of that hard work, and exercise, will result in a wonderful bounty in the end. Blessings abound!

Much love!

I will never think of Nine Inch Nails without thinking of your garden again. I like it that way!

Life is good, just too busy for my liking.
I always think the current summer will be less packed than the previous, but it never happens! I think I'm just getting old. :)
I'll be back with snapshots when things slow a bit. Be well!
