Spent seconds harvesting the pot "fields" and here's what I got after I thinned out the lettuce. First garden salad of the season. It's notable that I'll need bigger gardens next year if I want to actually have fresh veggies for the summer. I won't need to give away extra to neighbors this year :)
My goal this year was to dabble and see if I could grow something I could eat. I did it and I enjoy it. I'll have to see what next year brings. Maybe a raised garden in the yard?? That's a bit more complicated with the dogs and furry yard critters though. Plenty of time to figure it out. Wondering if I'll get anything from the tomato plants and the one cucumber plant. So far, they are growing well. Temps are climbing now and I don't know how they'll do when I'm in Asheville for this longer stay.

Yesterday was far too busy of a day. Busy with phone chats, zoom calls, texts, etc. I screened often, but that wasn't enough. I need to thin this out too (!!) Too much chatter. My day alone felt anything but alone. I felt mentally drained by the evening and STILL my phone never shut up. Before the pandemic, I was turning my phone off for a few hours when I needed it. Probably should do that again.
Listened to a few SCS calls yesterday. They're good. A big take-away was and oldie but goodie that I needed to hear again. Give your brain a thought and it sets out to prove that thought with evidence all day. When I give my brain the thought "the day is far too busy -- no one leaves me alone," guess what it finds? Maybe I have lots of time that that isn't true, but my brain focuses on when it IS true and that feels like overwhelm. I'm going to work on noticing what thoughts I'm feeding my head.
Cleaning crew first thing this morning and then I have a nail appointment. Pamper day and I'll take it. I'm going to turn my phone off most of the day and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Have a good start to the week. Later gators.
