Used my rescue inhaler THREE times at work. Could feel the veins in my neck struggling.
But the two classes at work were extra-ordinary. Morning class--all the seats occupied and we had a great learning experience. Everyone ready to grow vegetables. I walked up to the area by the cash register and talked with people etc. after class. I haven't that sort of wonder-filled teaching experience in many years.
Lunch was the container of chopped salad I made before breakfast. Apple, carrots, celery, radishes, walnuts and dried cranberries. Trader Joe's Muscat-Orange vinegar with olive oil. Delicious.
Afternoon class at 2pm--only three but we got into a great discussion on raised bed construction, size etc. They learned and I learned.
And then, I was out of energy and managed to pack my handouts, clear the table of exhibits and get my leftover salad, my bag and punch out my timecard. I was exhausted.
Really and truly unfit to be working any longer. At least at the greenhouse. I hoped to be able to make it across the yard, up the stairs and into the car to drive home. And finally, at home, I drifted to the couch and crumpled.
A good hot shower and my pajamas and I watched Sense and Sensibility and am now going to bed.

Joanne, I'm confused, I thought you said you were done at the greenhouse, no more work there. I must have misunderstood. Sounds like it's getting to be too much for you,do take care! Hope you are rested today.
I am retired, Annie. I was just there to teach a class on vegetable gardening. And for the foreseeable future days--I will be working at home in my own garden-- And I did rest today.
