This picture puts me in a dreamy state of mind. A fellow teacher gave the sunflower to me at the start of the summer in a little pot. Now it reminds me that school is starting, and my friends are going back to work. Am I feeling sentimental? Only a bit. I've loved this summer, and for me I'm counting on several more weeks of it. I am not feeling the stress of a new school year. I'm happily contemplating what new adventures my life might hold:
- Should I keep my garden blog going all fall and winter? I love writing it, but I get almost no feedback. Is it enough to write it for myself? Talk to me... someone.
- Do we want to invest in a greenhouse? It's a hobby both my husband and I enjoy. He especially likes to nurture plants over the winter. We've been looking online at a lovely cedar greenhouse. Is it worth the cost?
- Do I want to start a second blog? I had originally thought I'd write a quilting blog, but thought I'd "learn how" with this gardening blog, since it was summertime. I have worked on some quilting projects this summer, but winter is the season I really get into that. And now I have in mind to perfect my cooking skills. Soups to be exact. I'd like to perfect my already good soups, and expand my soup repertoire. Maybe I should blog about that.
- My daughter is Marketing Director for BASC at SUNY Brockport. She has organized a "Great Plate Challenge" for her workplace. It's a 60 day Eating for Wellness challenge that starts next week. I've signed on to see if I can further improve my diet. (Yippee:)
- Weekly piano lessons for my grandkids, Brooklynn and Brodie, start up again as soon as school is here. It's time to get Brooklynn to play in church.
