Each week there is further evidence that we are becoming an entity. This weekend I got emails from two people in the class and a phone call from another. We grow weekly more comfortable with each other and more familiar with each other's idiosyncrasies.
There is another gardener in the group, good to know. I need to balance the law in my mind with dirt in my fingers sometimes, and it even helps to just talk about it. I have decided to get chickens this spring, after the house is stucco'd. Life marches on, and while many things may wait a while, I find I can't just stop for 4 years but must fit things in where I can. Projects moving along, albeit a little slower than they used to. I just can't imagine waiting to have chickens for 4 years, nor can I imagine not gardening. The beds will be smaller and the harvest lighter but there will still be dirt under my fingernails and eggs in my kitchen.
