Wow, what a day at work today.  It was really busy but nobody was buying much.  You can tell this economy is in the shitter or headed that way, lots of lookers but very few serious buyers.  That makes my job quite difficult.  Over all it was a decent day and I’m excited.  The garden center was open today for the first time this season.  That means I can start looking at the summer goods and seeing what fun things I can buy (although since I’m moving this fall, I likely won’t bother spending my money).

Spent this evening outside raking leaves out of my garden pit.  I’ve got to pick up some mole traps again this year.  They’ve not started yet but I can feel that I’m going to have problems again.  I don’t think the random cats around here will do much to control the problem.  I will be doing another vegetable garden again this summer.  Since I’ll be here for pretty much the entire growing season, it doesn’t make much sense to just let those expensive raised garden beds and premium soil sit there to be used as a big cat box.  Not sure what I’m going to plant, hopefully I can start just about everything from seed this year.  Last year I could not do much form seed because my team member got hurt and I was working 80 hours a week.  I’ve already told the GM’s that I refuse to pull that shit again this year.  My team is perfectly able to run the show when I’m not there…well most of the time they are…they will be after my department meeting with them on Tuesday.  That’s another post.

Here’s some music to listen to while you look at the picture below.
