Your Perfect Morning Jumpstart?

Davit,

After transplanting the uprooted mums, I'd swear some critter was digging up the mulch, over the potting mix and triple mix I used. I guess I could shelter the 5 seedlings, if I thought about it

One year I planted Marigold seed with the carrots to deter carrot fly. I weeded them out by mistake when I forgot I did that. Now I use transplants.

One year I had pineapple weed come up with the carrots. Real hard to tell them apart. One thing I can't mistake is thistle.

Davit.

Lunch time, another very hot day.

Davit,

Your theory sounds true to survival.

As for gardening, I got an earful since I apparently dug up some chrysanthemums...I have to find the photos from last year, but everything looks similar

It is a fact that panic lasts a long time and can be replayed causing more, but pleasure hardly lasts past the moment and is hard to replay.* But associated memory can bring back similar moments in memory that you may have forgot. Vitamin B12 can bring them back for me very vivid. Always good ones, never anxiety ones.

* The memory of having done something positive can be easily accessed but the actual act can only be imagined. This can open doors to a world of pleasant memories even if they are not exactly as they happened or are only similar.

Why does this happen? If it didn't we would stop looking for pleasant positive things and settle for the one moment. We would never grow up.

When you start to lose the moment look for associated memories, (imagination) It can be wonderful.

Hugs,

That's a great way to start the day. As for the feeling wearing off during the day, maybe you might need something else to do to finish your day. What about drinking a cup of tea and watching the sunset in your garden to bring that feeling back again?

That holiday feeling never lasts for long, does it? :(

P.S. You've been to the Caribbean? Wow! :)

I wish I could carry that moment of peace with me for the rest of the day, since I felt frazzled. When it rains it pours.

I think I forget my limits

Hi.

I start off every morning with a coffee, sometimes two. Never more and that is all the coffee I will have all day. So enjoy it. Then a breakfast of one egg on one piece of toast with real butter. I know a lot of people don't eat breakfast but I have pills to take with food. Once I go outside, in this case to water Greenhouses, I don't know when I will come back in.

It is a calm clear morning so it is too cold to sit on the deck with my coffee. Today it will be 25 Celsius and will add to my sun burn. I'm hoping to move some Asparagus. It is the only way to separate it from the quack grass that takes over.

There are forty plants to dig up and move.

Just walking (sitting mostly in my case) in the garden is so peaceful. The swallows and humming birds showed up yesterday. Everyone should have a garden. Even just a flower garden. Three weeks till the last chance of frost so all I can put in is corn and potatoes. Tulips are up of course and I bought pansy's for some colour. I wish I had more early blooming flowers.

Ah. The sun is coming over the hill beside the house and shining on the deck. I think I can have my second coffee there this fine morning. Geese are awake now. (noisy) (only two this year, last year there were twelve)

Quick breakfast and outside.

Hello hugs4u,

I think a morning in the garden is a beautiful way to start the day. It is a great way to embrace the earth and it's beauty and carry that feeling with you throughout the rest of the day.

Thanks for the reminder of the importance of getting a nice start to the day :)

I tried to resume my mornings by gardening, which I believe I did last year. My neck was a bit sore, but I did some exercises. It was a stressful week and day yesterday, but the quiet, the sun and earth may start me on a clearer path.

In the garden, I felt the peace I've felt while on a Caribean vacation, with a bit of uncertainty mixed with being unsettled, and gratitude that I even had a space in that garden, in that place and in the beautiful earth.

What's your perfect morning beginning to a day, if you could it daily?
