yellow is waiting it's turn

to dry by the first

morning kristy

what is what for?



back is marginally better, but i am afraid of going to a chiroprocter........i am terrified that they will screw it up worse

it is all coming from one area in my back, the SAME place that i hurt from when i move full canning kettles
and when i move furniture


it needs to get better soon as i won't be able to spin on the wheel like this
nor plant beans
or cuc's
or WEED
or pick up needful and willful ( and spoiled rotten) duckies
who think momma is the taxi
plus canning season is almost upon us

as i sit here
i am looking at the multi colors hanging to dry, of the rovings
yellow will be next to hang there
and i am thinking
i may need to tone it all down a bit
it's brilliant saturated colors and i think it needs some spot areas of toning to give your eye a rest
either that or more magenta

i may ply it with browns and greens

(assuming my back cooperates)

ohohohohoh
LETTUCE
the baby lettuces are not only UP but they have declared themselves by leaves
THAT one is red sails( it's got reddish dots)
and THAT one is green deer tongue

and THAT one is something looseleaf and frilly that i can't remember the name..........
but the baby LEAVES are CURLY!!!!!!!!!!

i go out and talk to them daily

i got one spinach plant
so i have to replant that

the mache barrel appears to be coming along

no sign of the snow peas yet

now in the main garden, the multiplier onions are UP
the garlic so looks good
the cutting celery survived the winter as did ONE lonely leek
oh and bernie was right
there WAS a bale of peat out there
so we will do the blues this weekend
and the blackberry

i want elderberry and cranberry too

i think i am going to ask him to dig the holes and then i will order the plants
no?

ok NOW it's time for coffee
believe me
it really is
since it's 8:26 am
it's over due for coffee time

    Right now I wish I had lettuces coming up, alas it is much too cold.

    I love yellow, my second favorite color. Yellow is sunshine, happy, smilies, brightness, joy. Yellow is good. :)
