I've been so busy lately, not sure where the time goes. My hours at work were recently cut back and I've been using the free time to make up for all the things that have gotten messy at my house. How does that much animal hair accumulate under the sofa? The good news is the free time is nice for getting down to gardening. I've been building new garden boxes, reviving sad little succulents, and watching my crookneck zucchini come into their own. It may not put money in my pocket, but that peaceful feeling of working outside is a good trade off.
I'm back into my "hit the flea market every Sunday" routine and I found some fun stuff for my arrangements. Wish I could have done more, including planting in the old first aid box but alas, not sure where the time goes.
how cool is this thing?!
Also, tomorrow is the The Old House Fair in our neighborhood. It's a cute little street festival honoring all the historic homes in South Park, including house tours, crafts, food, etc. It's about 2 blocks over from the farmer's market and would be the perfect day of fresh produce and historical enlightenment. I won't be able to make it to the fair, which is sad because old homes are my calling, but there is lots to do for the BBQ we are hosting that evening. I think after a long and unsettling week, a good beer with friends is more refreshing than a craftsman bungalow tour (maybe not by much, seriously I skip a heartbeat for old homes).
