The Garden

Even though it is only January the garden is in full swing. I have started seeds and already have many seedlings. I have plants outside in containers too. There are some advantages of living in Austin.

Now I am not sure were my garden will be this summer because I am trying to downsize my housing. So as I search for new housing, I will be container gardening. And for now that works fine because I am growing a lot of herbs. I have started to sell some of my herbs at the local Famers Market. I am hoping to increase the variety of herbs to sell. I am also hoping to have some starts for sale in the spring.

So the garden is keeping me busy not only with seedling. But my garden boxes will be making the move too. I have filled all my outside containers with dirt and I am starting to bag up the rest. I have only emptied a few because I have ran into some fire ant mounds and I don't want to take them with me. So I have been treating the spots and then have to wait. But my thinking is if I do a little work everyday by the time I find a place to move. The garden will be ready to move.

I ended up sitting across from a women I think I meet before but hadn't talk too. This time we ended up talking and there were something that we had in common. At the end of the evening as we were all leaving she asked if any knew a library clerk looking for work. Well I raised my hand and everyone else pointed at me. We exchanged numbers and I heard from a few days late to interview. After waiting for the school district to caught up I got the call from HR. I was to start my full time job on the fir...

Spring Break

With my goal of posting twice a week and it's already Wednesday. I thought I better start writing. It's not that I don't have a lot that I can write about. It's just finding the time to sit and write. It is spring break at my house and it's also SXSW week. So there is lots of entertaining to do but there is also a lot of entertainment this week. I spent the weekend at SXSW Screenburn. Got to see storm troopers, lots of new games and Mike Tyson.  And I plan getting some music in later this week.
