I know it's hard, but try to take it easy. It won't heal when your body is forced to share energy for other things.

The garden will be there! I know. I know!

Beautiful harvest! Good idea about hiring the young man. Praying for your recovery Larry. It's HARD to not do things. But it will definitely pay off if you obey doctor's orders.

George, thanks for the prayers. Blessings come in many forms. The young man working here does not eat animal products (which I did not know). The first day I had him to cut down all the okra in the south garden and grind it up with the lawn mower, there must have been 20# of good okra that was chopped up. I later found that he was working to buy food and pay a speeding ticket. I told him to take anything from the garden he could use, from the look in his eyes it must have been Christmas. I think he is coming back today and I plan on sending more food home with him. I think I have been given a chance to teach a young man a few things he may be able to use later in life.

On a side note, I was told by my step son, who went to the Ft. smith fair last night, that everything I entered had a blue ribbon on it. I was hoping to throw some support toward your seed saving effort but they would not let me use the tags that I made, the made the tags so everyone's tag was the same.
