It’s Day Infinity of Zen Week.  Not unexpectedly, this week’s series has resulted in many more visitors from Japan than usual. I am hopeful you are all safe and have the support and strength to rebuild your homeland.

INFINITY
Normal cat is insistently meowing to get in the house. I hear her through the open window.  Light, fresh air is blowing through it as well.

She was insistent about wanting to go out earlier.  She went out when I went to check on the neighbors yard. I heard something I wouldn’t usually hear and Wiggle dog was barking at the fence in that direction.  All was ok.  It was my neighbor, who is usually not home this time of day.

While I was out front I took the opportunity to pull up some long dead plants.  I hit the roots against the warm brick wall so the rich soil would fall back in the garden. Then I threw them over the rusty barbed wire fence into the open field. I notice how well the chives came up again.  I pulled one plant that had new growth I hadn’t seen and replanted it.

I didn’t bother to check the mail, the mailwoman doesn’t usually come this early.

When I came back inside I started water to boil some beans.  They need to stand for an hour now.

One year ago today at the NDD – People don’t grow up, they just grow.  Actually I thought yesterday was 3/11 so I posted the year ago napkin from that date. So, today I am making amends by posting 3/10/10. It’s a really good one, one of my all time faves.
