The last several months have been super busy and somewhere between the start of Farm School in October and the end of December, my ability to keep up with the daily grind started to fade. Everything seemed to be moving so fast and I was constantly two steps behind. A few days before Christmas I came down with the worst sinus infection ever and then the pieces really started to crumble. To make matters worse, I broke my middle (left hand) finger just a few days into the New Year which brought things to a quick pause!
This morning I was wondering why I was so off balance and then I realized that maybe the universe was speaking. The truth of the matter is that a sista is tired and in need of a break. Now that the break has been forced on me, I'm gong to take advantage of it.
I REALY wanted to garden year-round. Thanks to a very mild winter, I still have plenty of collards, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, kale and lettuce growing. As much as it will pain my heart, I've decided that it's time to stop for a while. This weekend, I'll be enlisting the help of someone (not sure who just yet) to help me harvest whatever is ready and the rest will go into the compost bin.
After a short break, I'll be well rested and looking forward to a beautiful and robust year in the garden.
