I was late getting home yesterday because I had an appointment with the chiropractor. The glorious, wonderful chiropractor who fixed my neck, prescribed ice for the inflammation, and got rid of my headache. Anyway, I didn’t accomplish much, but nearly as much after work as I’d done in all of last weekend because I was so sick. If it would stop raining, I’d try to get the cardinal climber planted after work, but I dunno. At least I got the topsoil to mix with the garden soil and Black Kow; hopefully the weed seeds haven’t yet got a start.

Anyway, the first thing I noticed, due to the fact that I was no longer in pain, was that when I picked the geraniums to go with the black ‘toonyas, I went with bright pink for a kind of 80s feel. They had no blooms when I bought them, but the first one appeared yesterday. “Bright” is not an exaggeration. I think I had a peplum jacket these colours in 1987.

The only actual accomplishment (aside from filling MLB feeders with nectar I’d made on Sunday night) was that I mixed up some topsoil and garden soil, and pulled the weed-choked mulch out of the Sweet Tea honeysuckle’s spot, then added dirt (honeysuckle had some exposed root near the base…surprised it survived the winter like that), and planted the creeping zinnia seeds that arrived yesterday. That was pretty much it, but at least I’m not in pain! 🙂
