FUN FACT: I played volleyball 🏐 in college and I had a coach that wanted us to play “on the edge of our of control,” which meant pushing the limits to do what we maybe weren’t certain we could do.
For me lately April and May have been “on the edge of out of control.” These two months have included:
⚾️shuffling people around to baseball games and practices (a full time job in itself 🤪)
🥔planting out 750 dahlia tubers,
🌱keeping hundreds of plants starts alive planting them outside,
💦figuring out irrigation,
prepping flower rows,
🪴doing a house plant market,
💐putting together Mother’s Day flowers,
📚winding down our homeschool year,
👩🏻🌾opening up the farm stand,
🍽️plus making dinner and doing laundry.
Phew- it seems like we’re going to make it through (even if we weren’t always certain that we would).
This next chunk of time is one of my favorites because EVERYTHING has been planted out (whoop whoop) and now we just get to wait for the beauty to unfold. Stay tuned for Summer U-Pick dates (likely toward the end of July).
If this season also has you “on the edge of out of control” just maybe you’ll pull off something you weren’t totally sure you could.
