The Life and Times of Me

I hurt my right foot last week and I'm limping on it now which is better than cringing every time I put it on the floor and it fits in the shoe again. I had to get out today to pick up meds at drug store, something at Lowes and go to the liquor store (that was the most important as I was out of Amaretto, so got that and a bottle of sweet and sour mix to make Amaretto Sours, have to look up the recipe), absolutely had to go to grocery, from one end to the other, and when I got home, I was exhausted from the limping. Washed my hands really good and stayed away from people as much as possible.

I am so tired, Johnny, I can't plant anything today. Tomorrow, I'll do the tobacco and I read the way you do it, with the paper and knife and I'll do it that way, too.

I have some seeds to plant in February. Earlier, I studied every seed packet I had and noted when to plant them in general and how deep to plant them - wrote that all on the seeds packets so I could see it quickly, then separated all the packets and that's it and I'm not doing that over. What it is, is what it is.

I have bunches to plant the first of March and they are all in a plastic bag. My February bag is the tobacco, Carolina Cucumbers the first of February, Sun King Hybrid Broccoli middle of February, Supremo Hybrid Cucumber and National Pickling Cucumber the last week of February.

I have a garden of plants under the grow lamp growing larger and larger. Surely would like to get those outside but I don't trust this February weather at all based on January weather. I will have to get more potting soil mix but not until the foot is good. I have plenty of seed starter so don't need that.

I am so sorry about your foot. I hope it continues to improve.

You are way ahead of me on the organization, but that is my main garden chore for February. I won’t actually be planting anything outdoors till May or first week in June.

I’ll be ordering the patio pots tonight. I have plenty of soil stock piled from last year.

I like Amaretto Ice Cream Sundae as well as other ways of using Amaretto.

Sorry to hear about the bum foot. Not much is worse than not being able to walk.
