Sick Day Gardening

Alexa has been battling this horrible flu virus since Friday. Her fever has been up as high as 102 at times. She seems to be on her way to getting better today. This morning she was down right peppy. So we decided to use the nice day to sprinkle some grass seed over Cabbie's favorite winter pee spots and get some of the early veggies into the garden. We looked through our seed packets and took out the early planters. We planted three kinds of carrots for our resident carrot lover, Chloe and sugar snap peas. We labeled the garden markers Lex had picked out a few months ago.


We dug the weeds out of the garden and loosed the soil up. Getting our rows ready for planting.


She went right to work plopping the seeds in and watering them after. It did take a lot out of her though. After some lunch outside she snuggled into her chair and took a nice nap. Still getting her strength back, but hopefully on the mend.

  1. Except for the fever and lingering illness, it sounds like a lovely day.
