Happy Labor Day. I hate that it's considered the last day of summer. The garden doesn't have a clue that it's time to call it quits. Gardens are demanding. I like to think of Labor Day as a pause to enjoy what we've accomplished.
Seriously, how often do you just sit and enjoy your garden? I'm talking about relaxing with a cold drink and not darting your eyes about looking at the weeds you missed and the plants that need dividing or moving... Today, grab a book or invite some friends over. Just sit and enjoy.

Took this morning to enjoy and refect on yr 2 of my perennial garden, updated my journal with wins and tips for next yr. Wondeful to relax and celebrate what worked. Thx for the reminder!
Good for you, Cheryl. That means next year is year 3 – when things really start to take off. Stand back.
I took the day off too. Drank coffee, played with the kittens. We had a great time. Next year, more fall oriented plants!
