Quote of the Day: Ralph Waldo Emmerson

November 29th, 2009

For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

I found myself in an appreciative mood last night, so I thought this quote was perfect.

What kind of mood do you find yourself in today?

    Lovely quote and pictures.

    I am in a productive mood today. Just steadily moving through some tasks that needed attention.

      I’ve been working away as well. It seems like the days I wake up early I have much more energy to get more tasks done, or maybe it’s because I actually have more hours that day:)

    Happy to be home after a long trip for Thanksgiving. A good trip, but long.

    I am elated and feeling extremely blessed today, granted this is probably due to the birth of my daughter last night. :-)

About

This is a journal of my small organic gardens in north eastern Ohio, zone 5(a). Our gardens are named after our dog Lucy, a big brown/black lab mix from the local pound. We started calling her “Chiots” when she was a puppy and the name stuck. She thinks the yard and gardens belong to her, she chases away all squirrels & rabbits and the UPS man.

Our yard is very small and fairly shady, we are surrounded by woods all 3 sides. The soil is made up of rocks and clay, not the best, but I’ve spent 7 years adding chicken manure & compost. When we first moved in 8 years ago, the gardens were in terrible shape from years of neglect and too many chemical pesticides and fertilizers. It has taken years to reset the balance of nature and we're finally starting to see the fruit of our efforts. We unearth worms when we dig and we are seeing more and more birds and beneficial insects in the gardens. The soil is also starting to improve after years and years of hard work amending it with all kinds of organic compost.
