Garden & Turtle.

So, we got a Turtle. And my garden might be on steroids.

And all is wet and cool here. I hope summer kicks in soon. I have been wearing dresses nearly every day in a lame attempt at optimism. I even walked to the mailbox barefoot in the rain, just to show the weather who's boss. (As you know, I control everything.)

The story of our Turtle:

The original turtle that started it all. We were so taken with this turtle at the Arboretum, we decided to go to the pet store to see if they had pet turtles (which I didn't even know existed). We were bummed when we got there and they didn't have any. But they did have......
kittens from the Humane Society. So now we have a kitten called Turtle.
The dogs love her and she loves them. I am learning not to be scared of her spontaneity. I think I am starting to get a taste of how people feel about me. (When will I pounce? When will I be chill? When will I hide and be grouchy?)

And my garden is growing at top rate speed. Tomorrow I am going to harvest some lettuce and spinach for eating and thin the carrots before they get too much bigger. I tried my own theory of gardening: plant all the seeds and see what happens. And things are happening. We'll see how this all turns out. The great garden experiment.

Hope you are well.
