This is a journal, of sorts, of an organic garden in SW Michigan. It is also an opportunity for its writer to vent about much that ails her.

Woe the snow
Out the living room window at 8 this morning
Argh. The chickens don't want to come out of their coop. All the bulb flowers are flattened. And me? I have a doctor's appointment. (I'm one of those people who sees a doctor only when I am at death's door.)
Oh man, I haven't been around the past few days, and didn't know you were sick. I hope you're better SOON! If I were a neighbor, I'd ply you with homemade chicken soup till you cried mercy. Take care, El, and bundle up in something really warm. Sending a prayer and hot tea vibes your way...
A city girl who realized upon the birth of her daughter that life is entirely too short to spend on 1/12th of an acre, she now digs up her weeds (usually with a pick) on 5.

Yikes. Well, good luck at the doctor's I hope you are feeling better. I'm just coming off of some 2 week crud so I know how you feel.

The snow'll be gone soon :)
I was wondering how far south the snow went....
