...should happen more often!!

I have done the following:
  • made an awesome breakfast for me and Mr. A
  • got to visit the garden store for corn seeds and also to scope out perennial seeds for my only-remaining empty flower spot
  • picked out hollyh.ock and coreo.psis seeds
  • cut back dead bush as much as I could without Mr. A's help (he'll help me when he gets home from an errand)
  • weeded/prepared empty flower spot
  • planted seeds
  • transplanted 3 poppy plants that were just not thriving where they were- hope they like the new spot!
  • spread some of our compost on our veggie garden
  • made cherry pie from scratch
  • started to thaw meat for dinner
I am about to:
  • sort laundry, put in first load
  • go outside and read my book in the hammock
All the windows are open and it smells like fresh cherry pie in here- life is good!

What a great day! It always feels good to get so much done. Sounds like you'll be ready for a day of rest. :)

Scratch cherry pie? That sounds like heaven! I have been surprised at how much enjoyment I've gotten out of the gardening. Maybe it's in the blood...my mother's an obsessive (and very talented - hope that's inherited too!) gardener.

Those days are always so wonderful, aren't they? So often I sit for hours as the daylight wanes and don't get up to get anything done, but I'm robbing myself of that fabulous feeling of hominess and accomplishment. Good for you!

I am so jealous. I am the opposite of productive on the weekends. And especially when it comes to garden work. I'm glad you had such a good day and you deserve that read in your hammock (and slice of pie). :)
