jeanoappleseed<p>Good morning from <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Pasadena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pasadena</span></a>. ☀️ & 22°-27°C (72°-81°F) - very civilized 🙌🏼</p><p>I’ve been struggling a bit with rules. Modifying them. Following my <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> “whims” & letting them guide me or carry me away. But once on a sidetracked, I try to stay focus on what grabbed my attention. </p><p>Right now I’m making time for the garden. Though it’s not the true priority based on my education. There are other more important & urgent matters. BUT. </p><p>But I help the garden. And the garden helps me. It’s something I adore. It motivates me and makes me physically and mentally active. </p><p>I don’t take time off. I know! So the least I can do is do chores I love and that make me feel good. 👍🏻 No?</p><p>I bought these small and lowish <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/RaisedBeds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RaisedBeds</span></a> a while back. They were cheap. Then I had no time to deal with them. NOT a priority. </p><p>Back on the front burner! I decided to reuse them in the parkway strip garden makeover/re-engineering. And I plan on growing pineapples in them. I think 🤔 </p><p>Will it be a good spot for them with winter sun and summer shade from the oak? I think it will offer warmth, dry & protection from the harshest of what we get in solar radiation. Will dogs being walked damage it. Hopefully not if raised. </p><p>Growing pineapples here has many variables some of which can spell success, others disaster. So we’ll see. </p><p>Here we go!</p>
