All a bit chit

Having a massive chit in the garage right now.

I ordered 8kg of each variety of seed potatoes I wanted instead of 8 individual potatoes!
I'm giving 16 of each variety away and I've got 15 chitted enough to start off in grow sacks. The rest... Well... I think I'll just plant the ones that do the biggest chits.
I don't want to grow too many potatoes because I'll need to leave the ground to rest for a couple of years after and if I fill all the beds with spuds I won't be able to grow any next year. Plus I need room for my carrots and broccoli and peas and beans, etc, etc.

I bought some new seed trays today and a new broom - thrilling stuff.
Stupidly I also bought some cheapish multipurpose compost and I really regret it* It's rubbish and it doesn't smell or feel anything like soil or earth. It smells like poison and feels like pillow stuffing. I bet it's full of nasties and would be really unhealthy for growing veg. So I'm not going to use it.

*Note to self for next year.

I ordered a few seeds today. I am getting really excited about kicking off the growing season again!

Today I also booked a day being assessed for Asperger's (or other AS condition) by a psychologist. She's quite busy and it's few weeks away yet but it gives us time to organise everyone. As I've just said to Richard - I need to have a word with the kids really soon and let them know what's going on.

It's weird: I've spent my whole life trying to be normal and hoping that people won't spot I'm from another planet. Now I'm worried someone won't spot it.
