“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
~ Anaïs Nin
The run of restless nights caught up with me yesterday and I found myself in an emotional funk, tired, and unmotivated. I got very little done. I didn’t recognize what was happening until early evening when I was overcome with physical exhaustion. Oh yeah! I’m tired.
After a much better night, I feel ready to tackle the world today. Well, maybe not the world, but at least a few things around here.
The snow is melting at breakneck speed and my thoughts are turning toward the garden. Pretty much the only thing I accomplished yesterday was going through the seed catalog, inventorying what I have on hand, and making a list of seeds I need to purchase. I’ll take that list to the local garden centre today to see what they have on hand, and place a mail order for the rest. Think I’ll get my hands dirty and winter sow some lettuce today too.
Back on track. Kind of.

I’m having spring fever – it’s been 40s for the last few days. I’m sure it’s only temporary – it’s February in ND afterall, but it’s a nice respite.
