I'm so amazed by this incredible weather! And what are the chances that I get this weather AND a spot of energy to go along with it? It's, like, amazazing!
And can you believe that I got all of my red onions planted this morning? So, get this. My flower beds are cleaned out, my manure is spread, my asparagus is coming up, I will finally have RHUBARB this year, after years of failed attempts, my garlic is sprouting, the chives are up, my fall bulbs are coming up, the lilac and hydrangea lived, AND I planted three rows of red onions! I'm almost afraid to believe it all. It's like the heavens opened up and God said, "I love you, Thicket Dweller." It's incredible, I tell ya. Just incredible.
I hope to scatter some lettuce seeds today. Maybe some arugula, some romaine, maybe even some parsley and cilantro so I can stop buying it when I make ranch dressing.
I know that it's pitiful that things like this get me so excited, but what can I say? These are the very reasons I moved to the country! And after eight years of struggling with garden and livestock issues, it's incredibly refreshing to actually have something go right.
Hallelujah!
