It wasn't quite so hot today, and the humidity finally backed off a bit, so today was a perfect day to open up all the windows in the apartment and get a nice breeze flowing through it. After being out and about all day on thursday, today I didn't go out too much, just for a quick walk here and there.
One of the nice things about having an apartment on the ground floor, is that it opens up to a nice terrace with lots of plants, a few chairs, a table, all in the shade of tall trees. Also, while out yesterday, I got a tomato plant!
It's actually growing pretty fast as well. According to the gardner I got it from, it should be making tomatoes before I leave (if not, there are a bunch of tomatoes waiting for me at home as well). Regardless, it'll be fun to take care of while I'm here.
Also, for the first time since here, I actually took some time to sit outside, enjoy the weather, and read a book. It was incredibly relaxing - definitely will be doing more of that (especially since I need to do some pre-reading for one of my classes next semester...it's an interesting book though, so no worries).
Needs a bigger pot!
ReplyDeleteI know, this was the biggest I had! Also, I wanted it to stay smaller and make tomatoes faster, so I actually get some before I leave.
