Today I am celebrating that we’ve finally got most of the garden in. I say ‘we’ but truthfully Dad has done most of the work. He did all of the tilling, laid down the felt, worked the grid and planted most of the plants. Mostly all I’ve done is poke some holes and lay in a few plants. Still, it has felt good to actually help this year. My health wasn’t very good last year, so I didn’t get to do any gardening. We just have the zucchini to get into the ground, which will probably be some time on Monday since we are buying the plants this year due to the cold weather and late planting. The zucchini wasn’t ready when we bought the other plants. I can’t wait to make the first stirfry or pot of soup from those fresh vegetables!
Since I’ve not felt well the past few days, there’s little else to celebrate. I am just barely keeping up with writing projects because my body is just exhausted. I guess I could celebrate that I am still alive… yes, we will celebrate that.
What are you celebrating this week, dear readers? Feel free to share with me in comments.
Each Friday, I join Lexa Cain and friends for a weekly blog-hop called Celebrate the Small Things, where we celebrate all of those small moments from the week before.
The wonderful co-hosts of Celebrate the Small Things are:
L.G. Keltner @ Writing Off The Edge
Katie @ TheCyborgMom

As the Fates Would Have It 
Glad you got your garden planted. I have flower gardens, rather than vegetable gardens, and I love working in them. I hope you’re feeling better!
Thanks, Lori… I would love some flower gardens here, but our yard is small and our vegetables take up most of the room. The few areas available are heavily shaded because of the large Maple trees… still, I am sure I could find something that would grow in those shaded areas.. may look into it 🙂 Good luck with your flowers 🙂
Congrats on getting the garden up and being able to plant even a little. I’m still working on mine (always a bit slow). Here’s wishing you lots of vegetables and joy!
Thank you so much, Tonja 🙂 I hope you get yours in soon too 🙂
You usually do so much, perhaps your body just needs a little time off. Congrats on the garden! There’s nothing like fresh vegetables to improve any meal! 🙂
Thanks, Lexa.. yeah, I am coming to that realization too. I probably do need a bit of a vacation 🙂
I’ve been thinking about the characters from your story all day. It plays like a crime TV show – just as addicting. I think that’s something you can celebrate! Writing something I can’t stop thinking about!
You are a gem, Serena! Thank you.. yes, that is a reason to celebrate 🙂 My head’s a buzz with ideas.. can’t wait for June!
Celebrating being alive is a good thing! Especially when you have fresh from the garden veggies to look forward to. Yum!
Indeed! Thanks, Patricia 🙂
I’m celebrating me being alive
Then I shall celebrate you as well! Cheers!
Can I ask a question?
Of course.. ask away
