Pr-ohs: Late Summer Morning
http://pr-ohs.blogspot.com/2012/09/late-summer-morning.html
Monday, September 10, 2012. The news of rain reaches my nose first. Dissipating dust, heat and the opening of plant pores waft into my bedroom window. Just above my half sleeping form. I become alert, breathe more easily as I cool and everything around me cools. Between exhales of relief, the tension of hot days evaporating,. Tomatoes, melons, children from my past, friendships with elders. That will never reach their full fruition. Books that mean something to me. Pedagogy of the Oppressed.

It's the thick of winter and I'm inundated with homework that I ought to be working on this very moment. I'm completely distracted though by the sun shining into my yard and directly onto my 4x4 raised beds. All I want to do is put on some grubbies and start digging in the dirt. The seed catalog on my kitchen table keeps begging me to commit to this year's order. On My Drive Home.

Missouri girl meets urban Northwest plot. Who's this urban farm girl? Crafts, Storage and Other Things to Do on the Urban Farm. I've turned my laundry green! Copeland House finally has a laundry line! I've been procrastinating installing a line for about a year now waiting for just the right design.

We couldn't find the fabric that Kalvin wants to make his project with and Jovi's project is a surprise for her sister next weekend. I made dinner this evening so I didn't get to start my project, but you can have a sneak peek. Here's the fabric for my project (a yoga matt holder to be). Links to this post.

Spring is definitely here even if we have the occasional, super odd snow. Just look at this forest of bleeding hearts that have popped up. I cleared out all of the beds today, raking away the winter coats of fall leaves. For a brief time though you could see three seasons at once: fall leaves, winter decay, and tiny spring shoots.
