Blogapathy

Not sure what has brought on this bout of blogapathy...maybe it's the totally inconsistant weather we've been having: rainy and cold one day, sunny and warm the next. Although, actually, there has probably been a lot more of the rainy and cold. I feel my mood has become totally dependent on the weather. The 10 minutes spent at the bus stop with the kids in the morning determines whether I feel happy and carefree or like locking myself indoors. On those yucky, dark, rainy days, I have at least been knitting...finally tackling the sleeves on my cardigan I designed and knit last year...even putting on the sleeveless cardi when I get too cold.

And I've been watching more movies. Two of my favourites: The Painted Veil, and Children of Men. I watched Children of Men yesterday and just can't get it out of my head. So much to think about with that movie. A brilliant movie...swearing and guns, yes, but it is so worth watching.

And when the sun does come out, I've been gardening. Digging and planting; some veggies and herbs, but lots of lovely flowers. Every time I go to the supermarket, I can't help but come home with a pack of 6 flowers-so cheap at $5, or at least I think so. And planting already grown flowers should at least stop my stupid gardeners pulling EVERYTHING out like they did last year. I have noticed that they don't touch my garden now. These are the days Honey loves best, she runs around sniffing all the deer and rabbit tracks, chasing the squirrels while I garden.

Today...it's sunny and will get up to 20C. An outside day definitely! I have to make the most of them at the moment.
