about a week ago I noticed a bounce in my step. It told me two things...
how bad I had been feeling fighting off the Lyme disease, and
that it wasn't the antibiotics that were making me feel so ill.
I still had several days of antibiotics to go, so while I pushed myself a bit harder, I did avoid long periods of sun and thought rest was still in order.
Today with a few drug free days behind me and a small class, I sent the students selling (fingerling potatoes, peppers, garlic, eggplant, zucchini, and a single cucumber) and I went out into the heat and sun to weed two 20 foot beds of green beans... our fall harvest. Later in the day we baked rosemary bread and ate it with oven roasted veggies.
It was wonderful to come home exhausted from working hard.
I have been overwhelmed with paperwork at school and doing a craft business newsletter at home, but hope to get caught up on all my favorite garden blogs this weekend and early next week.

the "bounce" is your signature walk and I am happy to read it is coming back. you always look like a busy happy guy up there with that bounce! thank you for teaching my son. what he learned from your sessions built nicely on what we already do at home. take care!
Dana--- as for my gait... my one leg is just a bit longer than my other... glad it makes me look happy!
I'll bet you feel almost like skipping to be on the mend. I hate it when I get sick and not able to do things like usual. Don't worry about catching up on the blogs. Just take a day or two to relax a bit. It sounds like you could use a rest.
walk2write---- yes, when the energy returned I felt like skipping. I'll try not to worry, but I do want to check in on my garden blogging cohorts.
It's great to hear you're feeling more like yourself, Wayne. There's nothing like a good honest tired--so much better than tired you can't explain. Keep getting better :)
I'm so happy you're feeling better! What a shame you've been struck down just at the time of year when you most want to be out in the garden.
Lynn and Susan--- thanks for visiting me... been an absent garden blogger friend. but I got some time.
