Just getting started

I'm not sure why I have started this or if I have anything to say, anything of note anyhow. I'm at the end of a two and a half week stay at home due to some minor foot surgery. Except for the mobility restrictions imposed on me, it was a wonderful respite from my usual life. I read, knit, felted a handbag and communed with myself. The later is something I rarely get to do. What I discovered is that I like being by myself, with my little dog as companion. I enjoyed the quiet; the slower pace. I would have liked to have been able to sow some seeds for the vegetable garden I hope to start this year. Unfortunately, I didn't realize this until I was already confined to the sofa with my foot in the air. I've been planning it in my head for a while but need to get it down on paper. So I guess that is the next step; plot it out, make a list of all I will need and get the seeds started. There is still time as planting here really isn't safe until the middle to end of May. In the meantime I must steel myself for the return to work. Ah Well.
