NATURE GIRL

Everyone who knows me would laugh that I would ever elude to myself as "nature girl". But I wanted to show you my 'garden' with my new camera, I took a photo of a bee in flight..
I have four of these plants growing on....my dog pen. The only place that I knew that I would take care of them. So when I let the dogs out, I weed my plants and feed and water them. I have 4 Clematis, 2 cone flowers and a bee balm. All of them actually survived through the winter. The Clematis survived my weeding attempts, as I pulled them up twice last year, and jammed them back in as soon as I realized they weren't weeds.
So that was the tour of my garden. A big deal if you knew how much I dislike playing in the dirt.
While my friends are all digging and trimming, I'm doing this:
I'm basically done with my shawl. I am knitting on the edge right now. For every 3 live stitches, there is six rows of knitting, so it is taking me a while to get around the over 600 stitches. I figure I'm nearly half way. I was going to say that I would be done by the end of the week, but I have to work the next 2 days. Who knows, maybe if I steal a few minutes from now until then, I will be finished by this time next week. I hope that you have recovered from the holiday weekend. Let me tell you when that alarm went off at 5am, It was sure hard to roll out of bed!
