this morning we cleared out the weeds from our courtyard's children's garden and took them to union square's green market. we composted them and then picked out a flat of flowers: pansies, marigolds and alyssum. they'll get planted this coming saturday during a planting party in the courtyard.

after lunch, i mean brunch, chanda read about tibet . .
while morgana worked on her math. we also checked in with our twigs to see if the buds had opened. morgana's twig had opened, and so had mine. hmmm . . interestingly enough, chanda's was still closed so she didn't have to do any sketching. she was a bit . . too pleased for my taste . . !

morgana also ran her pirate dance.

ReplyDeleteNext time I drink a cup of rooibos I'll think of you... thanks for your hugs, prayers and thoughts, it means a lot.
Love and hugs to you san and co xxx
you're welcome, san. i wish we could come and visit! the girls could play with benedict and little miss pj . . and we could drink rooibus earl grey and knit :) t'would be fun!
DeleteIt's still too cold here to plant anything, but we have been thinking about it. We will do the community garden again and Charlotte will do her raised bed. Miriam is supposed to get her own raised bed also.
ReplyDeletethat will be so nice for them, especially to grow vegetables. the soil at this site isn't good enough for vegetables, but we're enjoying the flowers. monday and tuesday were very warm here. overall, it's been much warmer than last year. the temperature fluctuates 20 degrees! today the air had a nice coolness to it, which i liked very much.
DeleteIt got pretty warm here today also, but it's supposed to snow on Monday, says one of the ladies in the bookstore. I hope not!
Deleteyes! greg said to me last night that pennsylvania was supposed to get snow . . were you included with that too? we had rain last night, but not too bad. i was enjoying listening to the wind as i fell asleep and was actually hoping it would be a bit more blustery this morning. but it's quite calm out. it's cool, though, and grey.
DeleteSnow for us, but not the big storm they predicted. No power outages in our county but towards Rochester they were without power.
