Dragon's Musings

Springtime for Dragons and Syracuse....
The battle against the weeds have begun. I've spent several hours digging up annoying communal-root weeds that I don't have a name for, but they're nasty and normal weed-killer will not kill them. They need the super stuff--or to be manually removed. Or both.
And then there's the mint/lemon balm in my herb garden. I've gotten a bunch of that out. Most of it, I hope. Next week, more will sprout, I'm sure. This leaves me with a bunch of space in my herb garden for more veggies and other stuff to plant. Go herb garden! I'm thinking beans, but there's more space than THAT!
While I was tearing up the mint, Orpheus find some catnip in the pile, so I replanted that. Let me tell you, when I got inside, Clorinda LOVED me like there was no tomorrow! She started nibbling my fingers because of the catnip. :) Much fun.
I've got some chocolate mint (to replace that which died), basil, and lavender potted inside. And more catnip as well. I also need to grow some kitty-grass in the bottom of some of my larger plants to give Clorinda something to chew on other than little baby spider plants!
Well, that's it for this green update!

Brave Angus and the high water
Sadly, I think I may have to start replacing windows. The seals aren't good enough, and with all the rain, it's getting to be a problem as far as things leaking inside my house. Right now I've got a tin-foil slide which is helping a bit, but it's not a permanent fix. The permanent fix is new windows.
Angus is a little mad at me because I drove him through flooded streets. He didn't like them quite so much, but he slogged on like a good little car. I think he had post-traumatic-stress flashbacks to Pennsic. But I got him home and he got me home.
You'll notice, I have a new favorite person and a new quote. Lots of things are going on at Verbosity and The Blue-Eyed. It only makes sence since I'm in a state of inspiration and those are my major places of vetting the inspiration.
