How are you? What a world.
Do you know what humid looks like? Looks ok, feels not so great. It will be 95 here tomorrow. Eek.
Do I have enough eyes? I think not. The eyes are seeds on the Grow cloth. Working on more today. I have a bad habit if planting seeds and forgetting what I planted. But then sooner or later they show their real faces.
And I just love this red line, waiting to be crossed.
I am creating a ragmates page, and a placekeeper, for here. My old placekeeper is out of date. Would like to be listed?... send me a picture of you and/or a picture of your work. And a link to where folks might find you. And one sentence about you. For starters.
Does everything seem awfully stupid lately? Or is it me?
(((Jude))) That is a beautiful photo of your garden in the mist. Today brings great hope, we just had an election here in Oz, the conservative Coalition are out, Labor is in and The Greens scored a lot of new seats in both houses. The people have spoken, climate change is real and hopefully after years of government toadying to the fossil fuel industry we will start to change to renewable energy!
Such good news to hear about the change of government in Australia, cheers to change and renewable energy solutions.
Oh, lovely…now we need the U.S. to flip your way. When are we going to awaken from this distorted American Dream…
don’t hold your breath…
Hope change is in the air.
That glorious tree looks collaged into the scene…kinda how I feel much of the time, dropped into a scene, whether I want it, feel it or belong…fading will be welcomed.
And you had me humming: “And then you went and spoiled all by saying something stupid…” haha
ha, I love musical comments
Not just you for sure….yup…feels mostly stupid…more so on some days than on others:):)
How lovely that picture looks ..it ‘hides’ the humid beautifully:)
Here, temperatures have gone completely out of whack…40C(104F)..heatwave…all gone mad.
So good to plant seeds , forget what and then…feel gladly surprised.
All the best.
yes, growth is always a joy…
What!? You’ll be hotter than we are, now THAT’S “stupid”! Hah.
Yes, so much stupidity going on, I’m just gardening and sorting cloth, in preparation.
Staying home…unplugging…
…gardening, sorting cloth,
staying home…unplugging… yes 🙂
it’s crazy here.
It’s in the 50-60’s and supposed to stay that way this weekend. Absolutely, positively perfect. That of course refers to the weather and nothing else. I’ll just call the rest a work in progress…
It is not you, everything is stupid.
😎
i like the idea of planting random, unknown mystery seeds ‘n waiting to be… SURPRISED! i think u need a little inflatable pool on your enclosed porch this summer.
Ha!
What do I know BUT I’m becoming something I remember which is in my lifetime each generation being the voice of wisdom from its experience … money does not maketh the man springs to mind ( or woman ) it will be humanity’s undoing … this much we now know and.is obvious .. change is coming , this much I know … ( as a 60 something 🙂)
change is always coming, that is for sure…
Aww .. ragmates sounds like a sweet idea .. and a generous gesture.
😎
That red line is beautiful, and the red dots of the flowers around it, and that blue beside it, and….
Doing my best to ignore the world and most of the people in it, for better or worse, I don’t know. I’m a 60s person.
I used to be a 60s person but the man is an 80’s person and we compromised on the heat setting and now I am used to 70s
I jumped to thinking you meant decades! lol And I thought, yeah I’m a 60s person, wait how&why did the man become an 80s person – what was so special then…oh a compromise, we’re talking degrees here…okay I am a 70s person for sure and in more ways than one! haha
Stupidity is rampant, yes. Very discouraging. I withdraw even deeper into my shell. Luckily, I have gardening. Lots of seeds to plant and seedlings to care for. It’s not that hot here in Maine. Still need a sweater or a jacket, how I like it 🙂
yeah, this will be a sudden heatwave, all the ants will surface in a flurry!…
Winter is making its last gasps here. Low temps in the 20s. Some of my trees are sluggish to break dormancy. Truth be told, I really do not enjoy temps above the low 70s, so I don’t look forward to the heat of summer other than it benefits my garden. And I do love my garden.
It never gets humid here. I don’t have to deal with that.
It’s a kind of hell if it lasts too long. The mosquitoes love it.
Yeah, the man here loves the heat, I’m a 70s person.
We may have some snow tomorrow!
Wheeee.
I love your planting “seeds” in your cloth. More seed planting, less concrete!!! I’m worried about the Natural World…
Dreams of creating another
I grew up in Chicago, we have a saying “Welcome, grow gills” OK maybe it was just my saying but it applies. At least your humidity comes with fog,
Oh my yes, everything is stupid out there. I feel for the news people trying to make a coherent, valiant effort to make sense of the senseless.
and so I’m off to wed the garden, Rain willing, I subsume my incipient and rather impotent rage and name my weeds after those I would mercilessly mock and ridicule, if ever we came face-to face. Not that they would care, or listen as I am “only” an old woman. Who cares what we think?
it’s kinda nice to fade out of the “scene”
Agree.
❤
indeed the world has gone completely stupid.
guess we will just have to work with it
It is totally stupid at the moment! You are not alone!
Thank you.
Oh I think everything feels VERY stupid these days. Housing, Gas, Food, now baby formula.
It’s why it’s so important, I think, to take time each day to shut off and shut down. Shutting down could be a nap, stitching, a walk, gardening, anything that brings a sense of peace.
Yes, just divide the space and find a place.
Very stupid 👍🏻 Trying to avoid news and keep hand quilting ✌🏼💙
Staying useful…
Me too!
Right?
Definitely!
Not stupid at all. I feel like things are sorting themselves out right now and it will calm down in it’s own time. We all have our own timelines and it’s best we work in the time that’s good for us. I hope you have a wonderful weekend and that humidity calms down some.
probably I was referring to a bigger picture, ha!
