So, 15 minutes on the timer and here I am -- in between my every weekday chores and my weekend chores that were neglected. I know that if I don't do the floors today, I'll get caught up in this week's busyness and it won't get done until next weekend. And since next weekend already looks busy that would be a bad idea.

I went with my Mom to Doors Open this past Saturday. I drove. I'm loving how fuel efficient Mephostophilis has been. We drove out to Guelph then to the various sites within Guelph and home again on about an eighth of a tank. It puts a lot more options for things to do and places to go there for us. I fully intend to get a GRCA pass for this summer and use it as often as I can.

I took a little while this morning to check out the other Doors Open sites through the summer. Many don't appear to be really appealing to me. But then again some of the sites we went to yesterday I wouldn't have chosen, but I enjoyed nonetheless.

Heh, I just drifted off thinking about random stuff and typing none of it.

One of the things I really really need to do this week is prepare my garden for planting. It's 2 weeks to last frost and I should have started my radishes and carrots by now. Not to mention the watermelon that I planned on starting indoors 2 weeks ago. I'm trying out growing veggies on the porch this year instead of my normal flowering vines. If it doesn't work out I may try to find myself a community plot next summer. I'm actually still debating renting a plot anyways this summer.

I think it would be a good idea to get out of the house and garden somewhere else. I could keep my tried and true flowering vines on the railing and then harvest from the plot. It would also force me to interact with other people. Maybe. I don't know. Sounds like a good idea but there's part of me that wants to stay at home, safe and sound. Hah.

Maybe I'll email the contact the woman that coordinates the Kitchener gardens gave me. Apparently there are over 40 community gardens in the region. There has to be one that doesn't require volunteering. I'd much rather pay for the plot and go from there.

And that's 15.
