Updates and Not Knitting Bits

This evening we found out that Husband's classes will all be online for the rest of the Spring term.  Our new plan is for us to just hang tight and indulge our very introvert type selves for a couple of weeks.  We are a bit of a...wary lot (mostly due to Husband's public health background), so we have been slowly planning and setting up for this for a good couple of months.  (Not in the absurd, "buy all the toilet paper" way, thank you).
Happily, gardening season is starting, I have a garage that needs re-organization, a pile of needlework projects, new novels to read and a hoard of yarn.
My seedlings are doing well.  It should be warm enough soon to for them to go outside:
I put together a seed mix of sort of similar, older seed out of my collection:
Quite a lot of the mix is edible plants, including some random lettuce.  It will be a surprise to see what sprouts.
Then there is the vintage lace that finally got washed up.  My plan is to use some of it in a necklace.
In the process of digging out the lace, I came across some buttons that were ideal for the A Bit of Funk cardigan I have been planning.  I think they pair well with the lace I had already bought for the project.

Please, don't panic, take care of yourselves as best as you can, and listen to my sheep friend with their (slightly) modified message from Subversive Cross Stitch.
