I feel like the past month got away from me somehow. I’ve been stressed out with the start of the school year, some major computer problems that sucked up way too much of my time, and still-undiagnosed and increasingly debilitating leg pain. Blah. However, there’s some new fun on the horizon: I’m getting kiwi vines this week to trellis along my back fence, which will complete my little orchard (okay, who am I kidding, but at least they’ll make me feel extravagant.) This week I’ll also finish my fall planting, which will be minimal, mostly just beets, kale, and lettuces, but planting always makes me feel optimistic (as does gardening in general, since no matter how much I neglect my garden something still seems to grow).
