All In A Day's Work

I hear you, Ruby, "Number one...!"

1. Clear and till the space for the new herb garden.
2. Transplant the old herbs to the new herb garden and plant some new ones.
3. Set a new gate post.
4. Plumb the other gate and fix the latch (what a joy to have gates that work!).
5. Plant the dahlia bulbs (all three of them).
6. Re-layer the compost piles (with some help from the chickens).
7. Take apart last year's trellis.
8. Clean up the trash down by the road (one Budweiser quart bottle, Keystone light can, Miller, one Sheetz Big Gulp, 3 Aquafina — glad to see people are drinking more water).
9. Mow the dog yard, the garden yard, the barn yard, the front yard, the back yard, the back-back yard, the driveway, the road.
10. Water all the transplants and the fig twig.
11. Too dark to do the cold-season planting (now two weeks late); do that Sunday.
12. Check the newspaper for a condo in the city.
