Picking up tools, digging, squatting, grabbing, shaking off the dirt, turning it over, pulling out the roots, moving it over, considering placement, stopping to chat with neighbor, bending, putting away tools, shaking weed control and fertilizer, raking, watering …
That was my Saturday. 5 hours of cold breezes and maybe a little sunshine left me with sore hamstrings, knees, and lower back. I stretched them out on Sunday and today, and hope my muscles will get stronger with each new day in the yard. I’m still so grateful for the time to be in the garden, for this house and property of ours, and for the glorious weather. Today is 81 degrees, and still a bit breezy. A little more rain would be nice, but I’ll take the sunshine for now in May. Soon enough it will be too hot and I’ll be complaining about that.
