Don't Chase After Bees


Hello on this beautiful April day!  After my morning school van run I spent some time sitting on the back deck listening to my Bible app and watching as this dog of mine tried catching a bee.  I warned her that it wasn't a good idea but do dogs really listen?

This week has been in the mid to upper 80's and I do enjoy it.  Strange for April but I'll take it.  By Sunday it will be back to the 50s.  

I'm letting my indoor herb garden get some time outside under the real sun, instead of the plant light we have set up in the dining room.  Earlier today I did some research on why the mint plants aren't smelling minty and discovered it could be too much water, not enough water, too much sun, not enough sun.  Ah!  I've been trying to turn my black thumb into a green thumb because I really do like plants.  The basil has grown beautifully and we use it a lot.  The oregano isn't quite ready yet and, like I said, the mint isn't minting.  I think I'm going to move it to a bigger pot, add some good fertilization and see if I can get it to where it needs to be.  Planting takes skill and it's a learning experience.  I'm proud of myself for achieving what I have so far.  

It's Friday and I'm grateful to have made it through another week.  April is flying by just like the months before.  

I'll end it here, just wanted to write a quick hello.  Enjoy the weekend!  God bless you all!

  1. That is the same advice I get for every single one of my plants! Any time I have a brown leaf, or just want to be healtier, I take a Google photo and ask for advice. Answer is always the same: either too much water, not enough water, too much light or not enough light. Brilliant. I should work for Google:) I think I could write that. Hope you have a good weekend ahead!
