Ever since I got back from Seattle it's been absolute madness with freakish amounts of dialing-in, as we like to call it. Had a great show in town this weekend, but getting a drummer proved quite... well it was a mess, but I pulled it together somehow. It worked out for the best in a lot of ways.
Busy season is upon us and after a winter of little-to-do, my sword of responsibility is heavier and more difficult to wield. Rock and Roll music, in its own right, is a full-body sport. It'd be one thing just to play and get paid, but there's this whole networking/b.s. radar/dealing-with-people-you'd-rather-not part they don't teach you ANYWHERE. Did you know that almost everyone in the biz is a complete and utter flake? But it's all educational and fun if you look at it from the right perspective.

Now that I got that out *sigh*…. Most of the new plants remain unplanted. I know I’ll be able to juggle effectively once I get a little more acclimated, which is exactly what I was trying to say in the rant above but it didn’t work out that way. Speaking of, we’ve had a bout of amazing weather! It ‘s 76F right now and not a single cloud. I have been able to dig a garden bed over the last 10 days or so, in hour-long increments between here and where ever.

Tomorrow the stone guy is coming over to give us an estimate on a patio area and some cool paths. I’m going to call him the stone guy from now on, because it reminds me of the trolls from the Hobbit.

The fungicide seems to be working on what’s left of the wee tomatoes and basil. I started more seeds last week, just in case, although I doubt Toms’d be ready in time. The Nasturtiums and Morning Glories are getting huge despite the kitty having knocked them over TWICE.

I gotta hit the gym now, so my update must come to an end. I’ll try and catch up with y’all soon.

Rock n Roll and gardening, what a perfect combo :)

Oh, you sound busy! Take a deep breath, remember to enjoy yourselves.

Save time, do your work-out in the garden. Wonder if you could plant anyting while doing hand-stands? Just a thought.
