I spent all morning in the sewing room working on cards. I have one more left to finish in this particular batch. They will all need to be quilted right away so they can go into the mail. One of the ones I worked on yesterday and finished today needs some adjustment; I hope I can fix it without starting over.

While I was sewing I kept looking for excuses why I shouldn’t go out to work in the yard this afternoon. Sadly I didn’t come up with a good one and since it is Earth Day it seemed appropriate to be digging in it. I’m about to admit defeat on one of the beds. The ground cover (Snow on the Mountain) and the Daisies have pretty much taken over everything. I managed to find the three hostas that we knew were there but unless this weeding perks them up they aren’t doing very well. I think they should be moved and then I can let the other plants go wild.

For the rest of the afternoon I’ll continue to work on my cards. We’re having dinner from one of our Indian restaurants tonight; we haven’t ordered much from them but they have a special vegetarian dinner tonight in honour of the day.
