sick, yet accomplished

Even though I'm still feeling stuffed up and crappy, the weather outside was beautiful, and my father was willing to help with yard work, so I pulled on my overalls and yard hat and made a go of it. It was really lovely. We got the lawn mown, edges trimmed, and I even pulled some weeds from the lawn. Then after Dad left, I took a short break, then re-potted some flowers I bought this week, then tackled the indoor seed cultivation project I should (scratch that...hippie dad asked me to eliminate that word from my vocabulary)...could have done two months ago. Ah well, seeds (tomato, pepper, anise, peppermint, oregano, cilantro, sunflowers, brussel sprouts) are planted, and sitting in a sunny window. Cat is napping in the sun. And I feel splendid...in a sore, can't breath through my nose sort of way.

I also heard an ice cream truck. Does that mean Spring is really here at last?
