I've been fighting the winter blahs - I used to like winter .I had a great excuse to stay in side and read, write, create - but now that I seem to have kicked by reverse seasonal affective disorder, I get regular seasonal affective disorder and winter [after Christmas winter] makes me depressed.
I can't wait for the warm weather and to get outside and get back to work on my gardens. Today, we went to Lowe's in the snow and I plunked down $20 on my seeds. The only thing I didn't get was strawberry seeds - and I figure I'll have to invest in some plants when the season starts. I caved and bought carrots again - only because of the colorful variety and went with two types of beans [couldn't resist the purple ones] and multicolored peppers.
I also put my coffee seeds in water to soak and I'm planting them in their mini-greenhouse tomorrow. It takes 3-4 weeks for them to sprout, so I'm thinking by the time they're transplantable it will be warm enough to put them in a greenhouse at least.
I'm working on some fairy garden accessories and I plan to have some authentic fairy gardens this year. My indoor plants are hanging in there after some major trimming today. There's been so little sunlight, it's a wonder they're holding on, but they are.
Here's to warmer weather - it can't get here fast enough!
