I wanna stay in a yurt!
Found this place at big sur… http://www.treebonesresort.com/… this looks awesome… luxury yurts with ocean views! This may take a bit to convince J, but I’m going to try. I need to buy a book about California to see what I really want to do, but so far I’d like to: spend a few days in san francisco, drive south to the monterey/carmel by the sea area, then east to sequoia/kings canyon, then up to yosemite and back to sf. We’re only there a week.
Pollen is high and is making me cough and making my eyes red. It was a beautiful day today. Went for a walk tonight and watered the veggies. Bought 4 new perennials at the farmers market… a daisy, a geranium, a coreopsis… and something else. Figured I’d put them in the weed garden so as to choke out more weeds. Didn’t plant them though.
Here’s a picture of the jack in the pulpit I transplanted to my shade garden:
I transplated 2 that I had put in pots and stashed in the woods last summer (then forgot about). I forgot that I also planted some seeds I gathered from them so there are 3 babies in the bed. Must start labeling stuff! Who knows how many “weeds” I’ve pulled up that I’ve actually planted. Oh well.
I can’t believe it’s already 9. Guess I’ll do some reading. Been reading Generation Loss… it’s pretty good. I’m getting to the part that takes place in Maine. It’s pretty good so far. Tonight I think I’ll read the Art of Seduction.
I think there is some potential at work for a good group. Me and my coworker went to a goodbye party for free cake (there’s always free food there) and there are some guys who seem pretty funny. One of them is a newish guy who got up and sang at the awards dinner. We have a new guy starting in our department soon too. I’d like to meet more people outside of my department.
I have welts from black fly bites all over my arms. and the mosquitos were out tonight. got a present from Jill today… a bracelet she got in the dominican republic. It’s very pretty. Had too many 2 bite brownie bites tonight, but I’ve been working out. Hoed the weed garden yesterday and think I probably burned about a gazillion calories (hard work!). Anyway, that’s all. Good night.
One more thing… I’m feeling very proud of myself for being so patience and persevering. I look at my job and other things and see how patience really pays off. : ) I love it when a plan comes together.
