We are all still sick here. All of us. We are buried in used tissues, have gone through two boxes of Throat Coat tea, and occasionally engage in periodic family bonding moments where all four of cough breathlessly at the same time.
Who wants to come over?
Are you sure?
Really?
Because if you came over, you could see this:
Crocuses in bloom.
Now, this may be less than exciting to you because in your yard, like in every yard around us as far as I can tell, the crocuses have gone by. You are probably engaged in ooh-ing and aah-ing over daffodils by now. But me? I have this:
And that is all right.
Next gardening baby step: container herb garden, which I managed to seed in-between rounds of sickness-related moaning.
Wish me luck. And health. But mostly luck.
Very pretty!
My daffodils are still afraid to fully bloom – they are opening slowly, tentatively, like turtles sticking out their heads a little bit at a time waiting to see if it’s safe. It’s probably not!
Wish I could come over.The flowers are GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t remember seeing a single crocus here in Atlanta this year. Instead, I saw daffodils in mid-Feb. February! Whodathunk? We’ve had roses blooming since early March and honeysuckle right now. So, re-winding for a moment and seeing crocuses when it’s 86 and balmy out is great!
Hope you guys get better soon!
I drink Throat Coat, too. This little tidbit made me feel not quite so all the way across the country.
So… Is it better to all be sick at once? Or to have it drag out from one to the other and so on? I’d think the former… then again, maybe you’d rather be feeling well when having to deal with sick kids.
Hope you all feel better soon.
Oooh, that’s exciting! Don’t worry, I think we’re on the same timetable. I’ll be your misery-loving company.
We’re only a few weeks ahead of you — but we don’t have an ocean. We do have lakes, great ones, but I still think you win.
P.S. My chubby green thumbs are up for you, you little gardener, you.
Excuse me but are you guys still sick? I’m starting to worry – it’s been 3 weeks! If you’re not better yet, maybe I need to drive up there and take care of you. It should only take me a couple of days – hang in there! ( Well, maybe a little longer since ‘Maine’ is the only address it have)
