What to plant, when is terrifically dependent on where! Plants I struggled with in Ontario, grew beautifully in southern Pennsylvania and were weeds in the NW (Seattle area). Morning Glories were terrific in P. I actually paid $10 for one in a large pot in Montreal but it did not do great. Maybe I will start some seeds in small pots; they do not seem to transplant well.

Darn, a post from late yesterday may have gone missing.
Did not get energy to pot yesterday aft but did clean up the little cookie cutter critters for the Easter market, ready to fire. Did a couple more loads of laundry, went dancing and left after two dances. The mask does not protect me from men wearing gross fragrances; more than one this time and the organizer did not talk to either and certainly did not put it in email. So I came home and we had the freshly made cauliflower cheddar soup and shared a strawberry tart from the Cafe Racine. I made mediocre brownies but they were unneeded.

I was feeling quite nauseous and headachy from the fragrances and depressed by the lack of cooperation and the idea of not being able to dance any more. Maybe I can find a better mask, or put in two filters... Cannot dance with respirator. Went to lie down for a while. Got up for news, then R fell asleep. Bed time!

Porridge with cranberries and apples and split a chocolatine for bf. I deleted emails while R dealt with business and then went off to do things. I finished up with computer stuff then realized I had not voted in the Canada spring vote for fav musicians - Not the famous ones but ones who are less known, like those who play at the cafe. So I work my way through a list of 8 each day. How many days? ??? I will do it until it closes.

Have a pile of stuff ready to go to storage at the mill. Todays hope is to trim a few pots and leave to do a glaze firing and go to writers' group. Then come back. I can leave the window in studio open as the temp is going up - to 45F!!! next few days.
