And I'm back to present, with my presence!
A holiday haiku or two more to get me firmly planted and garden updates and info will be back in order. Luckily I have boring New Years and do nothing, so I'll probably have garden resolutions up the wazoo to share because there were a LOT of issues that I need to address for next year's garden.

Snow on car refused to melt.

Holiday Haiku Time Warp: One Day ago
"Happy Holiday What the Hells" again! Another time traveling post for my holiday haiku of one day ago:
Fourteen hour drive:
Python skin clouds overhead,
Swallowing the sky.

Haiku Time Warp: Two Days ago
"Happy Holiday What the Hells!" Here's a time traveling post for a holiday haiku of two days ago as my declaration of a haiku every day went bust quickly! Car travel + newborn + 2 year old + unfamiliar house + helping = -progress!
Digging in the snow
I discover dirt beneath.
Yearn for spring again.

Holiday Haiku
Not wanting to take a full hiatus for the holidays, I will be composing haikus everyday until things get a little CALMer.
My recent travelings have brought me to snowier regions and the barren land of my sister's home (she's not a gardener either) and I have a serious bent to want to "help" her become one. Her husband and I scheme to try easy things like beans and cucumbers to entice her and if they want to be a little more attentive, maybe some 'maters.
Sometimes I wonder if I lived in a truly northern, snow-nasty locale (it's only pretty for me for the first 10 minutes in the cold) if I would enjoy the nature imposed garden vacation and be better at planning for the spring garden rather than trying to garden all winter just to make it "challenging." I think I'd probably just be miserable and whine and attempt to grow things indoors or work on getting that greenhouse in a hurry!
Anyways, haiku time, baby:
Still drunk on summer,
tea steeped from August's bounty.
Winter's not so bad.
