Taking the Day Off

April 11, 2010 By: Patricia

Tomorrow I need a “J” word for the A to Z Blog Challenge. I’m working on that.

And I’m enjoying a family day. We need to visit the bookstore for birthday books, and there’s a cool playroom/coffee shop combination to check out.

Plus I bought a few pansies to plant.

It’s been a long time since I posted photos, so I need to get busy with the camera.

And I’m on the hunt for worms. I went to my favorite nursery yesterday for worms for my compost bin and they didn’t have any. Seems there’s a shortage of composting worms in my town. I’m not in the mood to go worm digging. I’ll make a few more calls and see if I can find a supply anywhere else.

Maybe I’ll write about worms when I get to “W” — if I can think of a way to tie worms to writing.

Well, duh. Writing about worms. That’s a double W.

See you tomorrow.

    Enjoy your day off. I love planting new flowers…that’s the only time they look nice because I’m not a gardener.

    I’ll the second the suggestion to buy fishing worms. When we built our garden in a top-soil scraped subdivision, we needed to create planting beds. The fishing stores came to the rescue when the nurseries didn’t have any.

    Hi, Patricia,
    If you live near where people go fishing, maybe you could buy some night crawlers? Just an idea.
    A lot of books have been written about worms. One is “How to eat Fried Worms”. haha.
    I haven’t decided yet what my G subject will be. I know it will just come to me out of the blue, so to speak.

    Hunting for Worms! Sounds like a great title for a short story. I’d read it!

    Have a great day.

    I’m planting in my garden as soon as the man and I get the fence finished. Yay – do you know there is some chemical in dirt that actually makes us feel good? It is the same that is in chocolate I think. By the way, I’m a ‘J’ word – Jan in a jam, jumping joyfully in june! yikes.

    Enjoy planting those pansies! I’m taking 10 13-yr olds to play paintball. Sounds like a ‘p’ day for me…
