Fortified By Books - #FitReaders Check-In

This check-in is for September 7th – 13th.
I overdid it at the Ohio Renaissance Festival last weekend and ended up having to take a couple of days off from work. I felt so bad, I thought I had come down with the flu.
The night before I went back to work, I realized I had less than two weeks before I move, and I’ve been on a rollercoaster of emotions and anxiety since. I’ve been moving from one place to another, several times to different countries or across the US, my entire life, but this time feels very different despite only moving across town. Maybe it’s because of why I’m moving or maybe it’s that I’m getting older and all of the major life changes and stress over the years have piled up, but this move is the hardest one I’ve ever done.
The few vegetables in my garden that didn’t die have been plentiful. I ended up with a giant eggplant, far more bell peppers than I know what to do with, three enormous carrots, and a ton of green beans. I’ve been eating the green beans with a ham that I baked, and trying to figure out a way to put bell pepper in everything else. I’m going to cut up the carrots to put on salads, and I’m baking an eggplant lasagna sometime this week.
Next year, I’ll mostly be doing container gardening, but I think I might have room on my patio for one or two gardening boxes that are similar to raised beds.
