Which End is Up?

Things have been a bit topsy-turvy in the weather department this summer.  It was so wet that many of the things I planted in the garden rotted, but the weeds had a lovely go of it and took over.  It has been quite warm for most of the month so far, including several days in the high 80's...in October!

We FINALLY got a spell of cooler weather, even a frost advisory for tonight, and look what my plants are doing!

This cucumber came up on it's own about 3 weeks ago!

My weeping cherry started blooming again!

Tonight I have that cucumber covered against the frost, along with several pepper plants and my herbs, even though it was warm in the sun today while JP and I hauled and stacked firewood.

J informed me several weeks ago, that it was banned book week.  In honor of that, I decided to finally read One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.  I had started it several times and couldn't make it through.  I did finish this time, and was quite dismayed at the ending.  I'm sorry that I spent all that time reading it!

I don't feel like my head is on straight tonight - my schedule has been absolutely crazy this week and I'm not sure who's coming or going or when or why.  

I think it's time for bed.
