Today was such a beautiful day, 73°, wind blowing in a very determined (but warm!) way. It is a sunny day, with quite a bank of dark clouds glowering from the west. Tomorrow is supposed to be a pretty stormy day, waking up to thunderstorms, followed by multiple fronts moving through all day long. They are warning of EF2 tornadoes and damaging hail. Thursday: snow. St Patrick's Day? High of 26°.
Ah, spring!
So I spent today outside. I planted all the seeds that need started indoors. I uncovered all of the raised beds, stirred in some compost and fine sawdust. I was pleased to see that I have thyme, basil, and garlic coming up.
I planted flowers, cleaned winter debris, hauled my tomato cages up.
I helped Tim put tin on a roof. Tricky business hauling 4x8 sheets of tin in a brisk wind, but I managed not to blow away.
PBS News Hour is not available. Anyone else seeing that?
650 ICE agents are still in Minnesota. That is 4x what is expected. They are picking up pregnant women from their scheduled appointments. Women are not keeping appointments and giving birth at home. Medical personnel are mobilized to address this.
Lindsey Graham wants Arab countries to join the fight.

Who would miss a chance to be a part of this?

We are getting the same weather forecasts downstate from you in Pittsburgh. And yes you are lucky you didn't blow away carrying tin sheets! I used to work in lumber in the mid-1980s and that gave me a real flashback. I wish Trump's brain would just explode and be done with it.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy 'achieving'.
ReplyDeleteStill the ICE nightmare goes on. Just wait for the first ICE induced abortion.
Yes, wasn't it a beautiful day? I have been outside as much as possible this week. Just soaking it up.
ReplyDeleteI caught up on your last 3 posts. You have been busy! You may need to protect that basil next week when we're back to freezing temps. I am worried about my pear and cherry trees which are threatening to open their blooms. Please don't, I tell them!
We have had bees off and on. I miss the hives, but after the last ones dies a few years ago we found that it was just too costly to start again. The prices have gotten crazy. I hope you can find some for a reasonable price.
Miss Lindsey seems more deranged than usual lately, I do wonder what's up with him.
ReplyDeleteI watched (March 10) PBS news hour tonight. Not sure why you couldn't get it. I watch it on youtube.
