My garden is going to be back! Yesterday I came back from a trip to the beach to find my roommate and my landlord out in the garden area breaking down the construction waste that's been a problem since we moved in nearly 5 years ago. This had lead to several problems in the past few months that pretty much made my garden completely inaccessible. BUT, we pitched in and with 6 of us all working, got the yard cleaned up enough last night that today I've started cleaning out the beds. I'm taking a noon-time break at the moment, as it's just too hot out there. I've done almost all the weeding and have broken up the dirt on half the garden. I just need to finish a little weeding, break up the other half of dirt, and clean up. Either tomorrow, or soon at any rate, I'll mix in some top soil and good fertilizers into the neglected beds and replant. I miss my mint! Thinking of this time getting regular, some citrus mint variation, and if I find a good one, maybe pineapple mint, it as a really pretty variegated leaf that I think will look good in my vials, now that I'll be able to get back to them more regularly.
This also means that we can have summer cookouts again! Yeah! Finally, something is looking up!
