A week or two ago I had decided I was going to make my blog more visible. Didn't have a definite plan but I did have a direction. I think Spring brings enthusiasm to life. Then my pc started losing it and made me tense and irritated not only because I couldn't write or post but I couldn't access my art classes or Pioneering Today Academy. So I took it outdoors. Dandelions were making their first appearance so I harvested. I now have about 7 quarts of dandelion oil started, roots and leaves dried and stored. Ready to make more balm from some of last years batch. I decided instead of tilling my small vegetable garden I would hand hoe it. Good exercise and I am nearly finished! I planted potatoes. I painted my outdoor table and chairs a vibrant turquois. In between I fought to get online which tried my patience for sure. I am currently working in my small orchard prepping the ground around the fruit trees for some comfrey and strawberry plants. I've got bluebirds nesting in the birdhouse near the garden, baby flickas checking the dried yucca stocks for bugs, robins patrolling for worms and butterflies fluttering around. There has also been a wake of buzzards and a Great Horned Owl. For living on a corner lot with busy road ways and a city hellbent on rapid growth I think we are doing alright.
