Several things have been on my mind lately. First, we've had some beautiful weather and it put me in the mood to plant a little garden... by little I mean like 6-7 plants, including this one.
I do not have my mother's green thumb, but I love to try! While I was working, I thought about how the whole planting process compares to IF and how frustrating it is that I can't get anything to take root! All I could think about was that line from the movie Raising Arizona where Ed found out she couldn't have children... "the doctor explained that her insides were a rocky place where my seed could find no purchase." Is it ironic that I can quote most of this crazy movie and in the past I thought it was hilarious & now I can relate to the infertility madness!?! So, back to my mini-garden... I will enjoy watching these grow & let's hope I can publish another picture in a few weeks that doesn't look just like the one above! OK- second thought(s)... maybe this will teach me to be better about keeping up with this blog... Mother's Day Weekend. I don't know what my other IF friends are doing, but I'm running! I'll admit that I'm going through an emotional-even at times bitter- mind-set and I've asked PC if we can just run from it all and he's wonderfully understanding & supportive, as well as our moms. You do not realize until you go through IF how our culture divides moms and non-moms. Now, I see & hear it all the time &, since I'm allowed & encouraged to vent here... it s-t-i-n-k-s!!! One last thought, I promise. Is it a complete anomaly that on the day we receive our grand tax refund check I turn too soon out of the garage and now have a huge bill to fix the damage on our new Jeep?

Gardening is hard work! The only plants I consistently work on are my herbs. This year I'm plannng on branching out...vegetables!
