The Summer is Coming

The weather is gorgeous and hot. I need to be out in it more, get my butt out of bed a half hour earlier (the butt crack of 7am, the inhumanity) and lace up my sneakers for a quick jog or fast walk. My old boss offered to fix my bike from when I was hit by a car and has been dilly-dallying all winter long, but it should be done hopefully by this weekend.

I am also jonesing to get my garden in and planted, but that breaketh the Golden Rule of Gardening: THOU SHALT NOT plant thy garden before Holy Memorial Day weekend.

Seriously, planting a few weeks early is just begging the gods to smite us with frost and snow. Yes, this is mid-May, and yes, it's currently a sunny 73°F, but the Alaskan gods do as they wilt.

2 Love Notes

How bout coming down here and helping me plant?? :D I have the plants, I just can't decide where to put them.

Butt crack of 7 a.m. ?? How about 5:30 and wait no 5:00 a.m. so I can walk and then shower.. Take that !!
