Gardens Galore

Bleeding hearts to the left and

       This will be a short post today.  I just finished writing a Family Blog post that could double as a regular blog post.  It's my honey's birthday today, and I want to spend the rest of the day with him.  But before we go out, we'll finish putting our vegetable garden in.  We've already eaten some of our greens and asparagus.  I've been also giving into my passion of flower gardens.  I've put in a new garden behind the outdoor stage seating and have started a new garden in a new lawn section.  My daughter sent me a photo of a great garden idea that I'm implementing now.  I'll post a photo when it's grown in.  So, today we'll put in the squash, peppers and beans - and of course, more flowers.  Every year I say that I'm not going to buy more flowers, then I break my pledge.  Eventually, I may run out of room, but I doubt it.  I already have three new spots scoped out.
       In the past, I haven't had a chance to run out of room because I moved so often.  I'm hoping this has been my final move.  It's my dream home.  It's the perfect house and has woods and gardens, peace and quiet.  We have wonderful neighbors and a great community around us.  It's a getaway and a sanctuary that asks to be shared with friends and family.  I don't think I've ever felt happier with my life than I do now.  I've been saying that I feel lucky, but people have been helping me realize that it isn't luck.  It's been hard work and lots of hardships that brought me to this wonderful place.
