Every muscle in my body is screaming. Four days to get that
garden in shape but it's done. I planted tomatoes, pole beans, bush beans, broccoli, lettuce, spinach, beats, carrots, cucumbers, potatoes and asparagus. I laid straw over the bare places. Watering now. It looks golden! So what if I can't move! :-)

1. Great job, Raven!
Sounds like you've earned yourself a nice soak in a hot tub and a couple glasses of wine. Try taking some ibuprofen just before you get in bed. That should help you get out of bed tomorrow morning.

:hi:

2. I finally managed to get the garden going, too.
The mulch isn't on yet, but the darn tomato cages are in place. Those things drive me nuts - only 2 out of 20 went in on the first try - but they work great. The weather forecast looks great for our neck of the woods, Raven.

3. Congratulations!
And thanks for the reminder to pick up more Arnica gel for my own aching gardening muscles. ;)
