Life is always fun. I did a half marathon in Lethbridge on June 1st. I felt great and did it in 2 hours, 2 minutes flat. Not bad as a training run, but I really wanted to beat 2 hours.

Anyways, shortly after, life gets fun. I ended up in the hospital and had my appendix out. Lying in the hospital bed in pain, all I could think about was my plants. I finally got out of the hospital today and haven't seen my plants since Saturday. Even though I can barely walk upright, here I am today, being an idiot, trying to train vines annd remove an extra plant. Apparently it was quite amusing to my mother who was looking after my kids.

So, at home we're down to the 1 522 Zaychkowsky. It's got quite a nice main going, I'm guessing about 5-6 feet. My friend Les at the farm is taking care of my plants, as well as Andrew's. He says they are doing fine.
I thought I wasn't obsessed with these pumpkins and was leading a more balanced life. I guess I was wrong.
