Blood Chemistry

It's been pretty quiet here lately even though I have post ideas (and pictures!) up the wazoo.

I just couldn't figure it out. . .

I'd wake up in the morning rested and raring to go.

Blog posts, garden chores and business ideas would jostle for attention as I would plan my day.
I'd get up, have breakfast, empty the dishwasher, get the bread started, run downstairs to water the plants and then head out with Jada for a walk.

I'd come home, feed her breakfast and have a cup of tea.
Tea done, it was time to get started for the day. . .

Only. . .  I couldn't.

I was tired!


Some days I was exhausted.

I blamed my allergies.

I thought maybe I had a case of the blues along with my allergies.

 Every evening I would tell myself that I'd go to bed early and get started fresh the next day, when I would surely whittle my growing To Do list down to a more manageable size. (Thus the lack of blog posts as I tend to blog later in the evening. . .)

 I went to my doctor for a medical so I can  renew my driver's license in a couple of weeks.

"Did you know you have very low iron and B12 levels?" he asked.

Uh. . . . no.


"You'll have to start taking supplements for both right away, although it will take awhile before you"ll notice a difference. . ."

For crying out loud!


I started with Wii Fit because I thought  I needed more exercise to boost my energy levels and I ended up quitting after a week, because after I was done all I wanted to do was go back to bed!

I'm still getting things done, they are just happening a lot slower than I would like.

Of course if you're smart (like me) you'll rope others into doing some of the stuff on your To Do list.
Yesterday Jesse and I (okay, Jesse) put up the second greenhouse. This one is portable and will be used as a 'gazebo' the rest of the year with a different cover on the roof.

Now all I need are shelves and I can start bringing more plants outside!

Whoo Hoo!

It's on my To Do list. . . .

I'm thinking Henry might like to work on that one. . . .
