this morning it was a balmy 71 at 5:30 a.m. and i was outside washing down the redwood (he SO loves his morning misting) and watered the veggies (Amos was very suspicious of my moves near the iron pot) and the two spots in the lawn where the sprinklers are broken ... relaxing and a great way to start today where i had to hold a staff meeting about our internet, email, inappropriate use of State equipment, incompatible activities, sexual harassment prevention and EAP policies ... i should have stayed in the garden!
