Yesterday and today were awesome gardening days. The weather was great, I got tons of things done, and I only ran into one snake(sleeping next to the potting shed door. I thought it was dead. My mistake...) Needless to say, I didn't get anything done in the studio. So far all creativity has been channeled outdoors but that has been where my heart has led me and I have been trying to listen more. I do tend to get obsessive once I am in a project. Yesterday, I had to work till one, so when I got home it was off with the work clothes and into the jeans and t-shirt. I ignored all phone calls much to parents and friends dismay. I just didn't want to leave my herbs, perennials, and veggies. So many things to do, so little time to complete them. I always have a running garden to do list going in my head. Pour fish fertilizer cocktail on the roses, retrieve clematis from the depths of those yellow daisy like giants, plant clematis seedling under rose, dig up clematis seedling under rose after deciding it doesn't really look like clematis at all. Today was more of the same though I did insist that the husband stop messing around with the fallen tree and escort me to a graduation party at our neighhbor's. I carried a card for the graduate and the husband carried a bottle of wine for the mother of said graduate. I asked the husband as we were walking down the street,"Which wine are we giving Sarah?"
"Oh I picked out a nice rose" and he shows me the bottle. The wine is called "Bitch."
"We can't give her that!"
"But it was the only one that was cold."
So I handed Kallie her card and told Sarah that the wine was "nothing personal." Luckily they had a sense of humor. And so life goes on...

Oh you made me laugh. I'm sure the wine was fine :)
I say do the outside stuff now, it will be blazing hot before we know it. Then you can retreat to the cool studio and let your imagination run wild.
