i've been resting up today, and checking in on our plants :) the weather is comfortable, and nicely sunny :) i love seeing how our plants are doing, and taking some new pictures to share :) it's awesome to see the 2 happy smiling sunflowers, in our garden, as they smile at us all, and the sun :) i'm also super pumped up and thrilled, about the corn growing :) it's really nice to see the corn :) tomatoes, peppers, and lots more, growing in our gardens :) i love picking those string beans, that are growing plentiful, on the bush string beans, and soon we'll be having lots of Kentucky wonder pole string beans growing :) The gardening season is in full swing :) i took some new pictures today, to share with everyone :)
Thank you angel friends, for your heart-felt well wishes, and comforting hugs :) i appreciate everything :) i wrote a little bit in my journal late yesterday afternoon, about a scary fall i had yesterday during the late afternoon, in our garden area. i am doing ok, but am a bit banged up, and sore. my left arm, shoulder, and my back, feels strained, but i'm ok, and will heal up :) what happened was, i was checking out our plants, during the late afternoon, and i noticed some of our corn plants, needed some more soil around the stem base. i walked over to my mom's peace flower garden, where we have some extra growing space, with soil, and i got a nice planter full of soil, and i was making my way back over to the garden, where the corn is. i was stepping over the fence, that's a small white/green fence, and my foot got stuck, in the fence, and my hips twisted, instead of falling onto the plants, i fell the other way, it was really quick. i felt chest first, and my right arm/shoulder took the brunt of the fall. i was a bit stunned, but am ok. i was so surprised, my belt/buckle broke. it was a pretty hard fall, i'm just thankful to be ok, and on the mend. :) the soreness will ease, and i'll be back to 100% soon :) Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts, and prayers :) You all are wonderfully caring :)
