I'm trying very hard not to stare at my seed tray. Logically, I know that those seeds won't start sprouting -- if they start sprouting -- in a minimum of seven days, but I so want them to grow. I haven't actually planted anything in years, and now that we're finally getting the bees out of the backyard, I can have a garden. We always used to have a vegetable garden. I miss my cherry tomatoes. ;_;
This year, I am determined. Especially with everything so expensive. It just makes more sense to grow berries and herbs and veges so that I don't have to buy them. And while I have the space, I might as well utilize it.
Plus, it is very relaxing, and one of the key things I need to do this year is find ways to relieve stress. Exercise, gardening, reading, and keeping a schedule. It's a little surreal to need to schedule my life this way in order to calm the hell down, but the near breakdown in the fall of last year was enough of a warning to rearrange my life - or else.
