This weather is so weird. It’s been hot, pushing 90 degrees for a few days, and now, it’s coat weather. What kills me is that there isn’t much in between. It’s a rapid rise and drop. No time to get used to it. Just weird.
Veronica’s teacher today was talking about bio mass. I didn’t understand the term, then she said that the days of rain followed by hot sun has spurred everything into massive growth mode. I can attest to that. My blackberries and stinging nettle look quite threatening off the back deck, and are encroaching.
I haven’t started feeding my goldfish in the pond yet, because the water temperature isn’t staying above 50 degrees, but we’re getting into late May now. It all seems so odd.
My arms are killing me. I’m in braces again, and I’m going to be good about taking the anti inflamatories regularly. I’ve been pretty lax.
So, I’ve worked on the shawl a little bit. The first day felt fine, the second day was uncomfortable. Typing is uncomfortable. Playing guitar with braces on is uncomfortable.
I think I need to pull out my wheel again.

My strawberries definitely believe in bio mass! They are growing like crazy!

We’re having the same weirdness down here in so. cal. and my weeds are doing the same thing.
One thing you can do in braces without hurting yourself is pray!

teehee I was trying to work out what bio mass was the abreviation for then I realised duh smacking forehead … biomass AKA carbon per unit space. I say duh for me ’cause I teach this term to students several times a year. Yup (a few days east of you) on saturday I was sure I would have to replant my beans as they hadn’t sprouted but 48 hrs later they were 2 inches out of the ground…
