April 27th

Well…you know, I’m getting used to this being good stuff…I know I’ve said that before but last night I had no desire at all to have cocktails and I slept pretty well…feel okay, too, and my thumb is not hurting at all and that is a miracle after all the chopping I did yesterday….I think I may be turning the corner on the pain I’ve been getting from working around here since my back didn’t hurt much even after all of the bending, chopping, and hauling yesterday…and I’ll take that…had been feeling really old and decrepit with not being able to go like I used to but I think it’s better…I should be hobbling around here and I’m not so I’ll take it….I do need to work on the lawn more this morning and get the manure worked into the garden….and there are some bare spots in the lawn that need seed and it is supposed to rain tonight and tomorrow so that will get it started…I hope…I do have one bean plant that has sprouted in the cups on the windowsill and I am hoping that I get all of the 8 that I planted to come up…that is one thing from last year’s garden that didn’t work too well….only got a few beans and there is nothing like fresh picked green beans so I am planting a bunch more this year….along with more green peppers since I only got about a half dozen off of 4 plants last year….not sure how good the soil is in the garden, it looks pretty sandy and I hope the manure will help that….if not, I’ll add some top soil to it, too, have plenty of time since it will be a few weeks until I’m ready to plant….not much to do today…doing the grocery run today along with depot and then back here for more yard work before I get on the bike…it is supposed to be almost 60 out there so it looks like a top down run with no fleece today…I think I may be edging up to switching to shorts soon…but it still may be too cold yet…we’ll see…more later…
