Gardening at noon

For today's adventure we drove down to Sloat Gardens near the zoo buy plants for our freshly tilled and composted community garden plot, then spent an hour or so laying it all out and getting it all planted and watered. We picked up a mix of things: tomatoes, peppers, beans and lettuces for the most part, with some flowers for accents in and around the plot. It was fun! It reminded me once again that I do NOT need to experience everything at high volume, so to speak; sometimes just doing a small and quiet Zen-like thing like gardening really is worth doing instead. Something that took me years to learn and remember.

Meanwhile, the Theadia rewrite is moving forward as scheduled. For the most part I've been doing pretty good and getting a bit over a thousand words done per session, and that's been easy because the opening scenes haven't needed all that much change. That's the daily word count I'm aiming for, and these days I usually don't have a problem hitting it unless I'm distracted or needing to focus on something else.

Hope everyone has a good week ahead!
