Gardening is a great stress reliever in this unusual year

I feel very lucky. Now that it is spring, there is so much to do in this huge yard, that I forget there is a pandemic. I forget the stress. I forget for a while, that I can’t see or hug my friends and family. I just dig. And weed. And go to my garden calendar to see what needs to be planted in the next few days. I can focus on my tomato seedlings. I can prepare a hoop house for the onions and leeks that need to be planted now. I also have someone to hug and love here. I am blessed.
