saturday

ok, so....i am determined to go big today....which in c-dub terminology means to either go for a large distance (as in running or biking), or to get a lot accomplished.....which is the route i am taking.....thus far i have made omelets and fried potatoes....must keep up my strength...i have planted all of the seedlings i have been tending from my flats that have languished on the back table waiting for this moment.....they are rather spindly...but if only part of them take off it is still a success...most have been eased into pots on the back deck...amongst other flowers or vegetables......i put some stringy sweet peas alongside my potted tomato plants.....might look kinda special at some point.....and so now i am heading back outside to deadhead rose bushes....and to trim back the volunteer shrubs that seem to burst forth every day.....and then maybe i'll take a shower and do some grocery shopping....i seem to shop twice as much with the extra mouth to feed.....which is just fine as i enjoy cooking for someone who complements each and every meal....i absolutely must make our rental reservation in the smokies for the (now) annual runner/walkers weekend .....we went to north carolina the year before last, and our rental cabin was idyllic...the ones available to us in this locale seem so baby blue and pink country with ruffles as to be almost unbearable.....there was one cabin with a bear motif.....a little too many bears for my taste......ah well...it is only for the two nights.....must make myself do this simple task.....
