Why am I sobbing over the tomatoes?
I have had a lot of thoughts that I want to share about moving, but moving comes with packing and a lot of other logistical things. We have to be out of this house in four days, and it will be a minimum of five days or more before we can move into the new house. So we are packing up and getting ready, being uncertain about what this coming week will look like for us.
Kev is cleaning up the yard, taking the compost over to add to a neighbor’s compost pile, and he asked me about my tomato plants which I nursed through the first freezing temperatures and are (were five minute ago) still working hard at bearing fruit. They can’t stay. They are going with the compost. I am sad.

I feel your sorrow about the tomatoes. I’ve shed tears over plants. They try so hard, it’s difficult not to see their eager, tenacious efforts. They fulfilled the measure of their creation, and had joy therein.
