Planting Daisies

Many days, long COVID limits me to short trips between the bed, kitchen, and bathroom. So today felt extraordinary…especially considering how I felt when the day started.

I actually had energy today! 

I know it may not seem like much, but I finally planted some of the daisies I started from seed this indoors this winter. It was my first time growing anything this way. 

I also mulched the tomatoes and cucumbers. It was nice to make a dent in the mound of woodchips that have been on the driveway forever.

By the time I finished mulching, my energy was becoming questionable. I’ve learned to stop sooner rather than later and pace myself.

It just feels good to be functional.
