Seed shopping

Posted on Wednesday 21 February 2007 at 08:53

in TYDOS - Post Comment

TYDOS will get its seeds on Friday. I have to sit down and look at my spreadsheets and whatnot, but thankfully I already did my crop planning and estimates awhile back.

I am so antsy for spring it's drivin' me up a tree. I stepped out the door the other day, and it hit me. The first change of the year does that up here. You just know when the weather's broken and winter's on its way out.

Breakneck puts it down to the temperature change, but to me, there's something more. There's a smell and a feel to it as well. The sounds of everything change. The sky changes.

The worst part is, there'll be more snow yet. There's bound to be more cold. But it becomes variable, not set into the earth's bones like January is.

The planet is leaning. I'm going seed shopping.


Hey

Have fun seed shopping! I have to sit down with my mom and figure out what we're going to plant, and buy seeds according to...I hope she'll have us plant corn this year, I love home grown corn on the cob!
