I hate to say this but I will not be growing this year. I am prepared to do so thanks to some seed sent by Bob but circumstances have changed causing me to halt plans to break ground or sow seed. To keep the seed I have safe I have sealed them up with a silica pack and stored them in a cool dry place.
As many of you know last year did not end for me well. The COPD diagnosis and drs orders to stay inside caused me to loose over 300 plants. Today after a year of trying new medicines I have found some that work and I'm just about where I was before all of the breathing issues began. My fatigue factor sucks but I can breathe better now.
So, just when I thought all was set to start this year I get a call from my sister in OH. They are putting my mother in Hospice. Dr says month, 3 months, maybe but not more than 6. With me being 600 miles from home I need to concentrate all efforts to having more face time with her. Next week I am leaving for a few weeks and will be traveling a lot back and forth as much as I can. Gardening is the last thing on my mind right now.
So, I will grow this season through your garden blogs here on ftt. I may not be getting my hands dirty but I can read and learn from your blog entries. Consider me y'all's tobacco cheerleader this year...lol. Gotta admit I will miss it but I've gotta spend as much time with her as I can. I'm just thankful I have time left share.
