Day 16: time
Sodium lights are gross, but walking down the middle of a quiet, sodium-lit street is pretty chill.

Clouds AND a power line! Really checking the boxes for moody pics.

Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn. OK, I definitely do not know enough to rate this film, but I do know that it definitely hates cars.

Day 14: Fences
We recently spray-foamed shut all of the gaps and cracks in our shed after I saw a rat scurrying around. Today, I found this guy back behind our fence 🤮.

Day 13: Community
We have a ton of fairy gardens in our neighborhood. Some are very upscale, like this one, other are more “places for children to store their toys at the base of a tree.” Both are great!

Day 11: Maroon
Working on pruning his Japanese maple so it looks less like Cousin It and more like the Karate Kid logo. Still have some work to do, I think.

Paddington 2, 2017 — ★★★½.  A soothing balm/marmalade.
-
Baby Boom, 1987 — ★★★½.  Ah yes, the three acts of the 80s hero’s journey: 9 to 5, Three Men and a Baby, and Funny Farm.

Day 4: Thorny
The roses are blooming! I’ve kept a close eye on them since they caught the bite last year (aka Rosette Disease, click through for some disgusting pictures—especially “excessive thorns”). We’ll see if these can survive, or if I’ll have to dig them up next season. Huge bummer, though, since they were one of the first plants we put in the ground when we bought the house!

The Princess Diaries, 2001 — ★★★½.  My only hope in life is to yell “YOU GOT CONED!” at someone.

Day 3: Experimental
This extremly dramatic, but extremely metal, Bloody Sorrell is part of a new container-based shady garden situation. Moved it to a pot, brought it inside, and ten minutes later it was totally fine.

Day 1: Switch
We recently switched our garden flag from a snakes and skulls thing to this one which says HELL SUNSHINE. Perfect for spring! 📸

Metal Lords, 2022 — ★★★½.  Charming…I mean, 🤘💀🤘.
