Pits and Peaks

I will be making Pits and Peaks a priority!

Pits:

-Not having enough time in the day
-People never, ever, ever saying anything positive about their life. Always negative. That must be a drag. Aren't you happy that you're alive?
-Always smudging nail polish. It was not my gift to do nails.
-Dog breath
-Insomnia(what's new) I need to come up with something productive to do at night.


Peaks:

-A friend got engaged! I am beyond thrilled for them and all their accomplishments as a couple. It's great to have positive/healthy relationships like this be an example for people.
-Warm weather + dog pool=tired dogs=happy owner
-Going into my backyard to pick blueberries(Rogue enjoys this as well)
-One of my top 5 favorite things to do in the summer....walking the dogs at dusk. It's so peaceful.
-I went to Albina/Mississippi neighborhood and fell in love with Ruby Jewel's Ice Cream Shop as well as all the fun shops and restaurants that neighborhood has to offer! Check it out!
-I found my new favorite flower: A Passion flower. It made an appearance in my backyard out of nowhere. Amazing.




What are your pits and peaks of the week?

Gardening

It's That Time of Year! Yippeee.

Yes, this girl is just a wee excited about summer approaching. I love summer for so many reasons but one of my favorites is being able to grow wonderful vegetables and flowers in my garden. So far in my vegetable garden I have one cherry tomato plant(it is surrounded by a wall of water gadget, the most amazing thing on earth), tons of dino and curly kale, mint, 2 lemon cucumber plants and beans. This year I tried to go for things I eat on a daily basis vs just growing random things I don't eat everyday and it going to waste. I have a love for Dahlia's and Lavender so those are always growing in my garden. More pictures to come!






Happy Gardening Everyone!
