I haven’t posted on any of my blogs in about four weeks.
Sometimes life gets to be too much, and gets in the way of the things you love to do. Sometimes the only way back to happiness is to do the things you love despite that wall of sadness standing in the way.
Instead of writing about it, I have been gardening a lot the last four weeks. And guess what? I am beginning to feel human again.
I just wanted to thank all my friends who have been there for me over the last several weeks to help me through this tough time. I am convinced that I have the best group of caring, loving, understanding and empathetic friends in the world.
Glad to see you are sharing your writings with us again! Hope you are well.

Hi Jean!
Thank you. I am fine. Just having a rough patch and learning to cope but I am sure things will get better.
How are you and yours?

Watching April bud and flower always gives me a boost. There is a plentitude of beauty in even a very small space. Mix in some sunshine and a flat surface to lie on and peace can't be far away.

Your gardens are lovely. I totally understand how life gets in the way and most times my garden is my only solace. Thanks for sharing pix of your beautiful gardens.
