Today is a day that normally I would be out on the patio filling up flower pots and then allowing them to rest in the shade before putting them out into the planter. There is not a nursery hoop anywhere that even has flower to choose from. This is the year where patience is golden and as much as I would like to get a few fingernails dirty I can only imagine the itch the farmers are experiencing. Those that had their corn seed already in their machine sheds are now recalculating the maturity dates as listed on tags sewn on the bags of seed and realizing that April 14 not one single field is ready for tilling up let alone putting a kernel in the ground. We just need to keep a lid on it and be thankful all the horrible storms have passed our portion of the state. Blessed be to God.
