DECEMBER REFLECTIONSDECEMBER REFLECTIONSDECEMBER REFLECTIONSDECEMBER REFLECTIONS - Day 2DECEMBER REFLECTIONS with @susannahconway. Greeting day 1 with my smile.My ski this morning. The snow not superb but I still enjoy moving along and the fresh crisp air. I’m trying the Farrah Fawcett hairdo again. Hoping to retain yesterday’s pin curls by not squashing them flat with a toque and sweat. Good outcome after. Oh happy day.So how is the greenhouse growing? It’s not with shorter days and not too many sunny days it is not heating up. The greens are still alive. We’ve taken down the tomatoes and bitter melon. I’ve taken 3 tomato slips and rioted them , just for fun. Will pot them up soon to see how they do.Finally shortened some pj pants. Got tired of rolling them up or stepping on them. Sometimes when desperate I just cut and not bother hemming. But I did the whole nine yards on these.I can hear Burton Cummings singing Stand Tall to my cucumber plants. They’re getting new leaves. I was expecting them to flop over but here they are. Next are my mom’s one and my 2 bougainvilleas all squished into one pot. I gave them a dose of lactobacillus bacteria (LAB) and sprayed the foliage to see if it would help turn the yellowish rusty one back to green. I gave my garbage and kitchen compost container a few sprays, too. Helped in cutting down the odour. This LAB is a bit exciting for me. 😂A cold November morning Nothing like our Sunday breakfast of sourdough pancakes, bacon and eggs to warm up.Instagram

WEEKEND MUTTERINGS
I’ve never ever found an optimum time for doing anything or an easy time for starting something. Truth be told, I’m a daydreamer, a doodler, lounger, wistful thinker. In short I’m a procrastinator, trying to hold life at bay. What … Continue reading
