May Day

I spent a lot of time working in the yard today, and I could be especially productive because I'd hired our neighbor's son to mow the back lawn (he's saving for a car and now has four "accounts" in the neighborhood). I potted up some of the raspberry plants, and divided up the white campanula that came from J's strawberry bed, and planted the half-barrel. Later, I dug out the middle of J's strawberry bed, extricated the dozen strawberry plants from the mass of morning glory, and left them for him to replant them.

I also read the second half of Persepolis for book club, made spaghetti for dinner and watched a S.H.I.E.L.D. episode from mid-March, and worked with J. again to get rid of the ants that want to live on his hot tub.

Hm, now that I've written it down, it doesn't look like that much, but my day certainly felt full.
