Me, too! The big sunflowers I have now were planted by the birds!
The ones I started (late) are still itty-bitty. I just planted more zinnias with the peas today.
I got the parsnips sown this evening, but not the carrots. It was too fine of an evening so we all just goofed off in the yard instead.
Tomorrow is kids day at the fair, so no planting is likely to get done. It'll be fun though, seven is a good age for things like that.
