Today I was supposed to be working outside in the gardens planting the tomato and pepper plants along with the marigolds, portulaca and begonias. Four of the tomatoes are now planted in the big flower pot on the porch. The variety that I started from seed this year are the patio size plants. Last year I kept forgetting to pinch the plants back so they ended up almost as tall as me.

We were at the greenhouse yesterday when there was a noise coming from somewhere and it was a high pitch sound. I thought maybe there was some sort of alarm going off inside the greenhouse. It was. My cell phone was in my pocket screaming at me because of the tornado warning. Ah. We got through that unscathed as it was northwest of where we are.

I’m still waiting for the warm spring weather. Yesterday was near 80 but today is in the low 50s. Enough already Mother Nature.
