today was one coworker’s last day and another coworker has been out sick and mother’s day is in TWO WEEKS *KLAXONS*

and I still have the entire 2nd batch of peppers (and some tomatoes yet!!) to transplant, except I need to collate and run trays through the hopper first to have something to transplant INTO, except there’s no room to put those trays down bc the first batch of peppers are still on the bench, bc the coworker who’s been out hasn’t been in to move stuff that’s in the area where I usually build pallet tables in the hoophouse, and I haven’t been able to move that stuff bc I’ve been planting tomatoes and squash seeds and stomping cabbage moths and filling the already-made tables with pots of broccoli and tomatoes and onions and things
