Whew. Back from a walk/jog. I'm feeling SO much better now, that I actually started over -- back to ground zero and walkin' the 'hood. Because I need to ease back into workouts and because it's spring and the bougainvillea, the roses, the citrus, and everything else beautiful and fragrant that stuffs up my nose and gives me eczema, is in bloom. Not to mention that the sun exposure was probably a great idea for my extra-crispy face. And because I gained back that last 5-7 pounds on the 'roids, dammit. So I decided to drop everything and brave the allergens and sun for the 20 minutes I had while the dogs' rice was boiling. Three songs to the South, half a song East, and 2.5 songs North to home and I'm done. And I even jogged for a few blocks. Twice. So there. Take that you frickin' allergies and skin and stuff!
It's good to be home. And feelin' better (the vitamin A seems to be helping the Grover's). And farmin', BTW -- I've got bell peppers, fennel, spinach, and onions, and my apricots and tomatoes are setting now. If a tenth of the blooms on my Meyer lemon come to fruition, I'ma open a lemonade stand. I'm such a proud mama. Who knew I could grow stuff that's actually useful? Do you KNOW how many stupid hibiscus plants I've killed in my time? And now I'm growing stuff that I can eat. Cool. Stay tuned for the citrus peel enzyme cleaner experiment. I've got several batches fermenting now and it should be ready to clean my house by mid-June. Lemony-jealous much?
Eagerly anticipating the results of the enzyme cleaner experiment - yes, I am!
