100 Things: #001

[4am_secret]

macfrosty is doing this, and it looks like a great incentive to post :) I thought about using her idea, which is "100 Things That Have Shaped Me", but today was a really nice day in many ways, and I'm feeling better about life than I have in a very, very long time. I don't know how long it will last, but I've decided to make my theme:

"100 Things That Make Me Feel Better About The World"

Starting with:



Gardening!

I have never gardened before, but today I bought some zucchini seeds and planted them with my mom :) This spring/summer, I'm going to help her around the yard and she's going to teach me how to properly garden. I'm excited about it! I'm going to buy more seeds and hopefully grow a lot of veggies to add to my diet this summer. It felt so great to spend time out in the sun, and I will really enjoy having things to care for <3

(Btw, my credit union charged me not one, but TWO fees for my issues while shopping on Sunday. I emailed them and they refunded me one charge, but wouldn't refund the other. Sucks, but today was so wonderful that I can't even bring myself to care.)

I knew you would pick something cool. *grins* Gardening is something I've grown to enjoy in adulthood, but I'm more into flower gardens myself.

Looking forward to your posts!

Right now, I'm still deciding what I want my topic to be, but I really want to do this. :)

This is such a great idea! I want to do it, but I have no idea what topic I would choose.

I'm trying my hand at gardening this year, too! Right now I have strawberry and tomato plants, and cucumber, basil, catnip, and spearmint seeds growing. Luckily, my dad has the greenest thumb of anyone I know, so he's been taking care of them when I forget, but I'll have more time this summer when I leave my job. I'm really looking forward to the fresh vegetables and fruits. Good luck with your garden!

You've inspired me! I kept thinking of a hundred different things that I could do. I took a few photos and was all set to upload them when the batteries died. So now they're recharging...
