Balcony Garden: My next project is to get some pots or planter boxes and plant some flowers and herbs. Picking plants is a little tricky: our balcony faces north and has a roof and side-walls, so it gets no direct sunlight. Here it is rare to get a first Frost before Thanksgiving, so I'm looking for plants that will establish themselves in the next few months and then survive the short winter here. Any suggestions? Exercise Still keeping at it. A couple runs and a weight session last week. Running in the heat has been surprising bearable, though very sweaty. I have been taking it slow, and trying to concentrate on posture/form. I have a history of not sticking with exercise plans, so I'm a little worried I'll quit.
