My New York Garden

My fire escape garden

Today was a great day. After radiology, Micah and I went to a little mini-nursery and picked up some planters, plants, seeds, and soil. We made a little garden on my fire escape (soon to be bigger). It’s amazing how good your improvisational skills become when you have so very little space to work with.

I studied all day and then went for my daily run, which involves running over the Williamsburg bridge into Manhattan. Man, I love my runs. But I’m pretty pooped right now. I just realized I’ve run over 30 miles already this week. My poor muscles are dying. Actually, I took a bubble bath to help soothe my muscles once I got home. Then I splurged and ordered sushi delivery for dinner. So very, very yummy.

I’m completely pooped right now, so that’s all I have the energy to say. I have learned a bunch of stuff in radiology, but you will have to wait in suspense to hear all about it. Right now it’s time for a movie (instead of reading). I just don’t have enough brain power left to read words.

I can’t wait until my garden starts growing!

    Nice garden. I don’t live in a city, but mine are all in pots as well. So I can pack up and move them with me.
