like the pharmacist who is sending a willing employee out to my home because they messed up my Rx door dash delivery by sending the wrong bottle of pills. I’m so grateful that she offered to do this, that I crawled out of my crash bed & snipped the best I could manage for a thank you.
a haphazardly wrapped bouquet composed of a base of 6 thick & dark purple lilac blooms with a few green leaves on their stems, mid  of 6-7 tall orange & yellow marigolds, & 2 tall sprays of spiked, purple-y blue borage flowers. wrapped in paper tied with green garden twine, then a plastic bag, sitting in an ancient revere ware copper bottom 1 qt pot, on a weathered light green painted picnic table.

besides eco & nurturing biodiversity reasons, my use of a scythe came about by being too poor to hire landscapers & needing a disability accessibility tool to cut things that didn’t hurt my body w/its injuries & vulnerabilities to repetitive stress injuries.
landscape of recently cut grass with a scythe. 4 passes cut made two windrows of cut grass. the grass has been cut & there are two parallel windrows where the cut grass has been raked to dry or mulch. in the foreground on the grass are the two tools: a modern austrian scythe with a lightweight ash wood snath & adjustable handles, & an about 70cm mong long & light steel grass blade attached that is specially forged in austria in a 500 year old factory. it’s crossed, on the ground by a light wooden rake with wide wooden teeth for raking cut grass. in the background is a green metal rolling cart holding the few tools you need in the field with the scythe—whetstones/holders— +snips, water for me & the whetstones, & a bucket needed while in the field

I ❤️ my old lady bicycle. She’s named, “Tilly.” Time to give Tilly some spring TLC this week so I can pedal to the nettle patch & see if the nettles are coming up. My guess is they are & it’s time for Nässelsoppa! (that’s swedish for nettle soup 💚🌱) 1st super nourishing greens of early spring.
Black, step-through frame bicycle that looks like a hybrid between a cruiser & trail bike, with an extra large comfy seat, detachable wire basket on the back, mirrors & reflector lights, parked indoors in a living room, on an old hardwood floor
