Today’s Gifts
Written by admin on May 14th, 2008“When doubts and fears are growing,
It’s hard to keep on going
From day to day not knowing
Just what the end will be.
Take each day as you find it,
If things go wrong, don’t mind it,
For each day leaves behind it
A chance to start anew.”
~Gertrude Ellgas
Some of today’s joys…

A garden to tend.

The little things, at ground level.

The first blooms on the scarlet sage.

Fresh flowers for my office.

Healthy rue (yellow blooms) which will bring scores of butterflies, bees, and wasps to my garden.

A cute little vegetable garden.

Thank you, Salina. I do enjoy working in my garden. I tend to let it get a bit out of control because I love weeds, too, but I do try and keep it looking like a true flower garden.
Thanks, Hannah.

I love your garden - I go for the ‘blowsy’ look of a slightly overgrown garden like we had in England!! Pics of you are great too - and I bet you are going to have a great season in your sweet veggie plot.

Mary, I would love to see the gardens you have seen in England. I know they’re beautiful. I hope to have a few vegetables this summer.
