windows of opportunity

Showers this morning. On and off. I pick "off" for my walk to the barn.



I pick "on" for breakfast with Ed. Time for a photo with the both of us post-72! I'm hoping we'll soon move this show to the porch, but for now -- we're still in the kitchen.



And eventually, it's all "off." The clouds linger for a while, but there's no rain and I've got work to do! And once again, I'm productive. Tubs and pots -- all two dozen of them -- done! 

Too, I moved some day lilies and pulled weeds of course. By early afternoon my day's work is behind me. I'm rewarded with celebratory sunshine. (The chickens like the coolness of newly moved dirt.)

 


 

 

I pick up the kids at their school: we could not have picked a better day for ice cream! It's warm, it's just lovely outside. (Even if they do eat their cones inside.)



(to the farmhouse!)


 

Once again, after dropping the kids off at the meetup point, there are plenty of daylight hours left to get stuff done. Creeping charlie to pull. Ed's out biking and I think that's just a great idea and so I hop on mine and go for a spin around the neighborhood as well. In short sleeves. Even though the evening is rapidly setting in.

You may ask -- so this is it? This is your day? Plant, kids, bike, eat, sleep?

Yes! Isn't that just the best?!

with love...
