I figure while I’m waiting to die (it being TN, after all, so business as usual), might as well take advantage of this seriously spring weather and plant more stuff!  First, I planted some herb seeds indoors.  Then I went outside and planted violas, nasturtiums, and lupines.  All my salad greens and veggies are coming up.  Hopefully somebody will get to enjoy all this!

I was really happy to see one of my self-seeded native columbines blooming, and also the first of the native woodland dwarf irises.  Dogwoods and many perennials are in full bloom, and bees are getting down to work.  I feel bad for Misu, who longs to join me out there, but I know it’s for the best, especially right now.  She finds many ways to be compensated for her loss.
