I mean to. It really helps me cope with life. I will say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.... so maybe I am on the way to hell in a handbasket.
But anyway, there is a lot going on in my life right now but I am not ready to talk about it yet. I will, when I am ready. Its not my story to tell either. I will eventually get to it.
My biggest distraction in life right now is that it is gardening season. My abilities to garden are very limited but its one of the things that I really enjoy. I can't did things up, move anything heavy or even garden for very long.
This year, my husband built me a massive raised bed garden with a five foot fence to keep out the predators - deer, fox, bobcats, skunks, etc. The cats are better at small predators than large ones. Last year, he also built me a huge flower garden.
I really enjoy gardening, but I said that already. I have been having fun with my vegetable garden and my flower garden. I have lots of little baby vegetable plants so far. I failed at starting vegetables from seeds. I mean I did start them, managed to kill half of them, forgot to label some and I can't tell sunflowers from cucumbers and zucchini to date.
This is my favorite time of year and I am very happy to be distracted by gardening. I would much rather stress about gardening than my health or any medical issue.
In the meantime, I will try to remember to blog.... but I am heading for the garden in a few minutes.... because its another day.

I'm a hap-hazard gardener - but hope that this year will be a little better. I've missed having a garden. This weekend we will have our side yard converted and with it I'll have two 4 x 8 raised beds ... I cannot wait to go tomato plant shopping (I didn't know when/if the conversion would happen, so had not planned seeds). I've planted some lettuce, cucumber, and zucchini from seed ... and for the first time ever actually labelled things ... we'll see ... maybe I'll be a little less haphazard this year ... I hope your garden turns out lovely ... it is certainly a fun thing to blog about :-)
