  • lostannie–The last time I saw my son was in the summer of 1966.  He was not yet two years old.


    cheshired–“Long strange trip” fershure!  Nobody but me knows just how strange, and I’ve forgotten a bunch of it.


    MrsBastage–Ugghhh!  You had to remind me of that masculine proclivity for ignoring email for days and days and days.


    Now for a break from this excursion into the past.  Some tubers came in the mail today, needing to be planted.  I did a walkthrough to assess winter damage in the garden and to get that little buzz of pleasure at the green things poking out of the ground.  I took pics, but it will be a few days before I upload them to my website http://cosmiverse.folksites.com/susitnart because I want a few more people to see the little gallery that’s up there now before I change it.  Putting any here would slow my load-time and that I will avoid at all costs.


    There’s nothing like garden work to bring my mind into here and now.  I’m outta here–gotta find spade, trowel, gloves….

  • I want to hire a gardener….

  • If I can grow anything without killing it I am doing great.

  • Green fields and frosted dew comes into mind.  Deja vu of lovely quaintness.  Nature truly soothes the soul. 

    Those hands would surely be full of care and love.

  • how exciting!!! I just read through all that stuff. I’m impressed with you courage here. This cant be easy. I’m crossing my toes for you

  • I only want to hire a gardener to do SOME of the work…..the heavy-duty shoveling.  Weeding.  I just don’t have time to do it properly.  And those’re trhe parts I hate! 

  • I’ve been gardening for the first time this year – mostly flowers. I’ve decided gardening is for people who like standing on their heads (lots of bending over). And I haven’t even put in ALL my seeds yet.

  • My garden is one of survival…I am not gardener…but I do love blooms.   That which we plant does not always come up! 

  • I enjoyed seeing what part of Alaska looks like, have never really given it much thought but I would hate the cold, cold, snow. Thanks for subscribing to me and good luck with your long lost ones Cheers Portia
