Respite


This is where I come for some respite. For a time, early in the morning or when it has cooled down in the evening, I visit the garden. I take a look and start weeding where I last left off. I don't have to think about the dishes, the laundry or floors and I don't worry about the boys. At times they join me and ohh and ahh over the growing veggies and fruit. I enjoy it.

  1. OOooohh, a garden! My wife and I join you in this interest. And yours looks as healthy as can be. No, seriously--that is a very good looking garden. You should be proud. Have you had some good harvests yet this year? My personal garden favorite is tomatos...

  5. I hear beans need a lot of water so I doused mine even in between when the sprinklers waters them. But I'm no expert;my brussel sprouts look like they're dead.
