Well, all those people who doubted our sanity choosing a low impact, low cost 'lifestyle' in the country are now possibly wishing they had done so too. Tiny apartments (with a 'view' if you're lucky) or the biggest house possible on the subdivided block, urban infill taking away the parks, centralised shopping districts that you need a car to get to. Le sigh.
As for me, I awoke around sunrise this morning with my limited list of things to do in the yard before I head out to fulfill my caring responsibilities for the next couple days. Water everything (a few days next week in the mid 30C's) check on all the new plantings (another set of daisies and herbs out the back door, bulbs starting to pop up everywhere, vegie transplants and seedlings, zillions of potted plants, new potato patch). Still need to turn my compost-heap-the-third. Feed the birds. Feed the turtle. Admire the wood I've started stacking away for winter in the woodshed.
Life is good. Keep smiling. Enjoy the day.
