2009 Woodtick Count - 33

I decided to be lazy today, confining my activities to the bare necessities. There are still plenty of items on my To Do List but other than watering the garden, making breakfast, lunch...and later tonight...supper, and working on a baby blanket, I decided to take a lazy day. I'll work on increasing the woodtick count tomorrow.

We received 0.02 inches of rain last night which explains the need to water the garden. I thinned the radishes; and, my lettuce, peas and beans have all begun to sprout and the container gardens and Earthboxes on my deck are doing fine. I'll tackle the weeding and transplanting tomorrow...maybe.
