On Being Artful

As I sat on the deck this morning with my cup of coffee and my copies of "Artful Blogging" and "Where Women Create", I realized I haven't had much time to be artful or creative lately.
The arrival of warm weather has brought with it outdoor activities in addition to the indoor ones that keep piling up. There just aren't enough hours in a day to accomplish all the things I want to do.
 Gardening has taken priority over spinning and other indoor activities.
These beautiful Cone Flowers are the latest addition to my herb and flower garden.
 I've added some potted moss to my indoor plants
as well as a little Patchouli.
The vegetable garden is in and beginning to sprout and I feel relieved knowing that I can take a step back to admire what I've accomplished.
When you think about it gardening IS "Artful".

    I did get a couple of small pots of million bells for hanging pots. We are having a real dark downpour with thunder and lightening, humid....the power is flickering too.
