Cotton Lavender . Mint

Spent all day in the garden...until 5:30.  Very focused with the tasks at hand.  It will be helpful to carry a thin, light notebook in my gardening belt in the future.  Found myself wanting to jot down ideas, making lists in my head as i worked away.

Thought about the 8 new works in the studio.. drying between layers of paint.  Time!!  Timing, I'm still working this out between gardening and studio practice.  Will be returning to the studio tomorrow, since today felt complete for the time being.

• planted berry fruits in berry beds
• weeded stone pathway to house
• planted Greek Basil seeds in the old cement barrel 
• composted the Dublin Bay Roses areas
• harvested armful of cavalo nero, lettuces, carrot, fennel
