A Year Ago: 'I was not aware until recently.  I did not know this music existed and I am sad for the time I missed and simultaneously glad for being here now. I'm not going to provide details of this band.  If you are interested please go ahead and search for that information yourself.  If you care, it may bring a smile.   I love the music I have heard from this band so far. Literally, everything makes me smile and feel an uplifted kind f joy that I do not feel often with just music.  Normally there has to be some sort of memory already attached to a song but this album I've been listening to today is phenomenal.  'right out tha gate.' DECIDE. Such a great word.  Yes, there are innumerable possibilities in this world.  Possibilities of the life you could live, the path you could take to lead you, hopefully, to heights of success and happiness you can't even imagine.  But, the thing is, you have to decide.  You can't let yourself sit there and think so much.

Well...I've finally done it.  Now I suppose the trick will be to keep it up, eh? I've been majorly obsessed with gardening since before I actually had a yard to garden in.  Containers gave me a wonderful outlet in my last apartment as I often referred to my balcony as the forest.  Now I've had two 'official' summers with a rather large backyard and I've got to say, it takes a lot of hot, sweaty and fun work. In this first post, I've added pictures from my garden in the summer of 2010...the first full summer I had a garden.  While I planted tomatoes, corn, strawberries, loofah and cotton...I only yielded one tomato and several tomato hornworms, ick.  This year has been much more fruitful...more on that next time...
