I have been such a slacker lately with everything. The house, work, the car, etc.... Last week I decided I would start the garden that I have been intending to start for the past six or seven years. I bought all the seeds, a shovel, a cute pair of garden gloves and I even got two window herb gardens for my kitchen. So last night, in a spurt of energy, I went ahead and planted the window garden. I planted basil, parsley, chives, oregano, thyme and lavender (in two seperate garden boxes). The directions said to use only five seeds of each but they were so tiny I just let them all fall in, so we'll see what happens.
This weekend I plan to start a vegetable garden. I will have to go get some chicken wire to put around it to keep my dogs out of it (hopefully). Of course I do not have a green thumb at all so I am not even sure this is going to work, but it will give me a hobby for a while and if it does work maybe we can get a few meals out of the fruits(vegetables) of my labor. I got corn, squash, watermelon, and some other seeds that I cannot recall at the moment, but I know they will be consumed if they do grow. I will post again and let you know how it goes (of course I'm talking to the computer since no one reads my blogs :)
