Spring Siren

Well the siren of spring dragged my spirit into the garden and wouldn't let me loose. I have spent every free moment in the garden during six perfect mild sunny spring days. Not too hot, not too cold and no bugs. It can be a short window of opportunity in New England. So now the screenhouse is up, weeds are in the compost, the soil is enriched, new stone walls have appeared and new perennials have taken their place in the beds... bee balm, cardinal flowers, sweet william, lupine, pinks, delphinium, Gold Dust allysum, columbine and red creeping thyme. Now we'll have nearly a week of drizzle and intermittent showers, a gentle watering by mother nature. I couln't have planned it better if I were in charge of the weather.

HOWEVER. I haven't checked my email in five days. My lampwork order is still almost done. I am behind schedule for the Lampwork Carnival posting. The house is as it always is. I am still afraid to look at the email. Does anybody know where I can find a clean towel? I'm hungry.
