Happy Birthday Nando

ok so I missed a few days but back before the month hit double digits...  At Trader Joe's the customers are buying the shit out of produce which works for me because I work the produce and it makes the days go by super fast.  Rodrigo, my brother-in-law is in Brazil right now visiting family.  He owns Gardenin' Angels Landscaping and I work in his office.  Part of that responsibility involves manning the phone while he is away.  It's hard when he is away in Brazil because the internet in Brazil, where he is staying, is not great at it's very best.




some of the plants I am working with at Black Sheep Garden are starting to show some pretty flowers.

here are a few picture of Zsweet Insanity



Today is my nephew Nando's 16th birthday so of course I have to shout him out here even if no one he knows, know me.  It's the thought as they say.  I probably won't see him until the weekend and he has a fight.  He is a boxer.  I have seen him lose once, and of course redeem himself a few months later and won a unanimous decision.  He is fighting again this Saturday in Foxboro and I hope to be able to go and see him do it again.  Happy Born Day Nando!!

first day of the current year

of course every year I do this... make some sort of promise to think more with the pen and keep track of the days...  maybe it should be correctly termed keeping track of the daze...  life is interesting to say the least and some day I hope to fill in the last year and a half on my blog...  my life has been completely without writing...  every now and then I would not work long enough to put down some thoughts...




here are a couple pictures of ZSweet Insanity and they seem to be coming along just fine...  Black Sheep Garden has allowed me the opportunity to try out my gardening skills and keep the garden going all year round...




along with 2 full time jobs and gardening I like spending a lot of time with my family... my brother has two teenage boys and my sister has 2 wonderful little girls...  Ana the oldest girl and I took a walk today because it was nearly 50 degrees on the first of the year...

I talked to my friend Dawn in Virginia today via the book of faces... she mentioned she had begun a new journal in an older journal going back many years... I, in fact, had done the exact same thing this morning while puffing this morning to ring in the new year after a night of good rest... she is a friend I never want to lose she is too far away, but I believe we stay in touch for a reason and that reason some day will reveal itself to me...
