I’m worn out. My husband is worn out. It’s been a very busy summer. Oy. I’m looking forward to not having anymore mandatory call-out days for work. I’ve had to work all of them, but I suspected that would be the case for me. I’m just not lucky. I know some people that haven’t had to work any. I’m jealous. Still, I’m happy for them that they don’t have to work their days off.
The growing season is almost over here, and that makes me a little bit sad. I was looking at my garden and having happy thoughts about the pretty things in it when a cool cold breeze gave me the goosebumps. It’s not that far off now that we’ll be getting super cold temperatures and snow. I just planted some purple coneflowers today, and I hope they have enough time to get well-rooted to survive -40ish temps this winter. *crossed fingers*
I’m thinking about making a terrarium or for an indoor project this winter. Timber Press has a book that I’m thinking about getting to help me get started. It would be fun to do, and I can make it as beachy/summery as I want. I don’t see a downside. Newp. Maybe I can even get my friend Paul at The Texas Triffid Ranch to give me some advice on carnivorous plants for a terrarium. It makes me giddy just to think about having a project in the winter.
