Always Knew I Was Dizzy

Category: Ramblings | Posted: Mon Feb 11, 2013 8:44 pm

This is no time (but then there never is a good time) to be dizzy. Actually it is vertigo and I am seeing a physical therapist tomorrow. Hoping to get the world on a solid footing then and get back to work. The garden has lots to do with things popping out of the ground and crying out to be dug, cleaned up and/or be transplanted.

I wobble out to the backyard several times a day with an excuse that the dogs need a potty break. Actually it is for my own break of fresh air and a short sit to hear the birds and squirrels among the city noises. If I take my time I can scrape some moss off the bricks and place it on the new shade garden beds. Little things I wouldn't normally take the time to do.

Am making plans in my head. Leveling one small area, terracing another. Maybe a pallet of bricks and some bark to be delivered. How should we lay out the gazebo area and is it too early to get it out? Have had a foot of snow in April in the past, so had better wait.

Oh we'll, it is all in my head and it won't be long before it all comes together as best as it might. Gardening is a process and never a end ....it is always changing.

Good luck with the therapist tomorrow Jewel and let's hope he/she can sort out your vertigo problem quickly for you.

Physical therapy works and I will continue the exercises. Thanks Frank and Eileen for the good thoughts.

Hi Jewell,

I am sorry to hear about your dizziness.
has a diagnose been established yet? I hope that one can be established and that you can begin on the road back to "non-dizziness".

I'll bet that your garden is happy to see you make an appearance now and then.

Beterschap,

Am well and returning to work tomorrow. I had benign positional vertigo.

Shouldn't have studied the garden and thought about it so much. I can see a future of moving some sheds and my planting station, and making David a new outdoor cigar bar.. It will be a busy summer.

Well, that doesn't sound too bad. Bad enough, of course...but there are some unpleasant types of vertigo.

Good luck this summer.
