Another short one, since there’s not much to say about today, I don’t think. I’m cold and I’d like to go lay in bed and play bookworm and just kind of vegitate a bit.  I slept a good deal today, which about puts my day into a nutshell, lol… LAZY.  I’m so tired all of a sudden.  How much can be chalked up to pregnancy?  Most of it, I suspect actually.  I don’t feel depressed.  I feel a TAD anxious because of a stupid email exchange with someone on a gardening group over compost.  He made me feel kind of stupid, actually.  I’m not sure I want to read his reply to my last email, and I may just ignore it and let it drop.  My feeling on gardening right now is that this year, despite the fact that things seem like they might just be going down the tubes for America, was NOT the year to start a garden.  However… however, I have learned a WHOLE LOT in my quest to begin a garden, and for that, I am glad.  I need some "hands on" experience now, but truth be told, I’ve lost all my desire.  I want to be able to do this right… or at least easily, and I just don’t have the money to do that. 
Seems like EVERYTHING revolves around money, doesn’t it?  LOL…well, I could probably do it without, but then, I AM pregnant, so the "right" and easy way, would seem the way to go whilst pregnant.  I don’t really want to be leaning down all the time… would much rather do it the raised bed way. 
Anyway… this year may not be as critical to "do" as to "know how to do" or at least have a better idea of where to begin.  I’ve learned so much… and I have started a compost bin, so I’m thinking, that next year, I will be much better equipped. 

Mmmm, I just read that email and now I know why the guy made me feel so bad….

Sarah, dear, what exactly are you talking about????

Sigh.  Not sure what I said to exactly warrant THAT kind of response.  And this is not like water off a duck’s back for me…. I went to bed last night feeling… sad and icky.  Slightly depressed. 

Well, I must get going.  I really am tired, and I’m not going to do myself any favors talking about that.
