It will be a short post today. I really haven’t done anything. I have been very tired today and wonder whether I am having a bit of delayed reaction to the fall.
I did want to share the crop that came out of our mini poly tunnel yesterday. I’d like to claim the green fingers but I can’t. My husband is the one who does the gardening these days. I have been doing some watering since he has been away. I used to do a certain amount of gardening, then there was a year, some time ago, when I had carefully grown beans from seeds. I had nurtured them inside, then hardened them off in a little plastic greenhouse. I finally planted them out in the garden. If I remember rightly there were two dozen plants. The slugs ate the lot in one night. I was devastated and have done very little since. So now my husband is the one doing the growing.
I had hoped to make a ratatouille however given I had neither tomatoes or an aubergine, soI didn’t. Instead I made a salad with quinoa and sheep’s cheese and delicious it was too.
Tomorrow or Friday I shall be going to hunt for leather off cuts. I will try and finish the moccasin slippers I started earlier in the week and I will make a 2nd pair of baby boots. Pictures to follow.
Have disappointments ever put you off doing things? Do you just keep trying?
Tales from the Sheshed France 
Your body is healing Zenna and healing takes energy. All the bruising you have needs to be absorbed and processed by your body doing what it naturally does. Your part in the healing process is to do what you body is asking you to do. If you are tired and lacking energy you body s sending you the message to rest, be gentle on yourself , to feed your body with nourishing food and rest. When you listen to your own body, as you do, it will tell you what is needed from you.
The vegetables look fantastic and there is a simple joy in harvesting something that has been grown by you. I bet it tasted wonderful.
When I come to something that that hasn’t gone well and has left me disappointed I usually step back and try to decide how and why it has left me disappointed . Disappointment is a heaviness and if I collect too many disappointments I feel bogged down and so, I either decide to let it go or feel inspired to try it again. It depends on what the disappointment is.
I hope you rest well tonight and your body continues to heal. Xx

Thank you. I think I felt that I’d hung around doing very little last week, so now I should be up and at it. However I’m in a lot of pain, so having to take it easy.
