“It’s my day to sleep in.”….”Did you say fresh catnip?”….”I’ll be right down!”
Spring mix of perennial volunteers…catnip, lemon balm, oregano and mint…an island in the garden plot. All (except the oregano) take a lot of effort to keep from taking over the garden.

Love the foliage and the tameness of these perennials.
Six Tomato seedlings
Melon seedlings with room for vines to run along retaining wall.
I chose very young plants this year due to the unseasonably cool weather. May need to replant. I also chose to add a path for access to the six tomato plants.
Path-Before
Dilemma? 25 years ago my kitchen garden was two 8’X8′ raised beds in full sun. Over the years the transition has been to nearly full shade. The Earth Angel and Golden Edge Hostas as well as bird bath and feeders were the new look. A sweeping retaining wall replaced the original box plots enclosing about 400 square feet. The dilemma for this season is that we are back to full sun due to the loss of ash trees to disease. The hostas may not survive a hot August. Rather than fine tuning the stepping stone path (and have to redo), I took them up and mulched the path. Check back in the fall on how this season worked out!

I’m with Eve. I’ll take a nap. You just go ahead with all that yard work. 😉
