sprouting leaf lettuce

I think I totally jumped the gun, but I went ahead and transplanted my vegetable seedlings into the ground. I hope this was not a mistake and that the temp. stays moderate enough for them to stay alive outside. That said, it was quite satisfying to see my cucumber, tomatoes, eggplant, basil, and winter squash all esconced in their designated places. Still a lot of space between them but in a few weeks they’ll fill out for sure.

Also started to do some packing. I’ve been acquiring furniture in bits and pieces over the past week or so. Having sold or given away most furniture I owned during my last move, I’m kinda starting from scratch again. More reason to feed my IKEA addiction.

The plan was to go birdwatching with Sraah again today, but since no one else was around to look after the dog, I had to cancel (it would have been a glorious day for it too)… and it looks like it’s going to rain tomorrow for Victoria Day. Birding postponed until next weekend :(

Someone up there is reminding me that I have work to do.
