The Good Life


 Too stressed and fed up to concentrate on much at all yesterday so I resorted to gardening. Yes – if you know me and are reading this, that’s probably quite startling news, but it’s amazing the things you find yourself considering when you’re stuck at home day after day. I’ve put my past (and failed) greenfingered attempts behind me in a mission for vegetables.
 
So far, our garden already boasts salad leaves, carrots, onions and beans – none of which have been influenced by me at all. I’ve been put in charge of two things only, in hope of keeping at least one of them alive – beetroot and potatoes. I followed the rules of potatoeing so closely yesterday afternoon that I’m feeling very optimistic. Also had a wonderful post-gardening meditation, so maybe I should try this more often. Watch this space…

  1. You're so fortunate to have a garden. I think being out in nature regardless of where or how helps our spirit so much, which makes me think I'll go for a walk now.
    Have a great day!
