Traci and I planted our garden a few days ago. We've got 50 plants starting in a planter box in the dining room, and they should be plenty mature when the time comes to move them to the back yard. I'm going to try to get the soil ready soon, then I can work on keeping weeds out of there between now and transplant time. We tried planting seeds directly in the yard two years ago, but that was a joke. We learned a little last year with our nine tomato plants. This year, we're going to grow tomatoes, corn, jalapeños, bell peppers, onions, squash, watermelon, and a few other vegetables.

My neck has slowly been getting better this week, but I've gotten a really bad sore throat to make up for it. I have, as usual, been putting off going to the doctor for my sore throat, but the last time I did that I ended up having strep and getting an ear infection to go with it. Oh well, some people never learn.

Funny that you should mention that. I just got over having tonsilitis, an ear infection and sinus infection, i was sick pretty much the whole week. They gave me Zithromax 500mg (z-pack). It worked like a charm, I was better in 2 days.
