Devotions

[greenstorm]

A sense of spaciousness in my life, even if just for a bit

Two bush days in a row

Probably relatedly, being unselfconsciously and unintentionally happy

Saskatoon berries that have been hanging on the bush, ripe, for weeks and have got dense and ultra sweet, halfway to raisins

The extra-mystical sense I get from my well knowing it's part of a karst system

An abundance of weird-shaped squash

Melons?!??!!!?!! Here?!?!?!!!!!!! I think one at least is big enough it'll give me seeds. Also the mystery of which melon it is, there are several like it from my mix I sowed this spring

All the colours skin can be

Watering my garden

The cuteness of piglets

Raspberry/rhubarb/mint/duck coexistence

A warm fall (I know you may not call this fall, but historically speaking we could have a first frost anytime and instead it was 32C today)

Brushing bits of tree out of my hair

Showering off so much salt

Picking up a freezer pizza on the way home and makinh things easy for myself

The anticipation of making biscuits

Enjoying my life again?

Feeling like it's ok. It's been awhile

Winning the "no one coming into my house" thing without any arguement from boss, using language the union person gave me, probably because I prepped thoroughly and didn't talk to boss while I was losing it

Cool air coming in the window all night, and deep blankets

Planting trees

Congratulations on the work victory. That's a difficult boundary to enforce, handled with precision.

Easy to enforce: I have dogs and a gate I can padlock.

Hard to avoid consequences for, perhaps. Luckily folks seem to be on my side for this one.

Oooh, what kind of melons?

[greenstorm]

No idea. My grex contained Lofthouse-Oliverson Cantaloupes, Hope Farm Cantaloupes from a couple hours away from here, Farthest North mix from Adaptive seeds, and a bunch of others. Because there are several that look similar, I expect the successful melons are one of the former two, because there were several of each of those seeds and they're pretty uniform in fruit type.
