I just ran into our maintenance woman on the porch, and she looked pointedly over the porch rail at the bare patch of dirt in front of the building - I had happened to meet her on Saturday in the hardware store and asked if there would be any problem with me doing something with that patch of dirt. I had to admit I haven't started yet. Of course today is the first day of sun since I last saw her, but I guess I could have been at it this morning. I've got to chip that dirt up, and then I bet the bag of gardening dirt I bought isn't going to go far, really. I'll need three more bags to make much of a difference, and I still haven't got the seeds I want. I'd like to just seed some sort of low-growing wildflower or herb, something I won't have to work on too much, at least for the first. If I feel inspired I can keep on.
