Puttering with plants
is one of the activities
that make me happy.
It relaxes me,
nurtures my artistic side,
and is the best exercise
for the fibromyalgia
(at least for me).
Since this is our first spring in the farmhouse,
everything is new.
I'm mixing what they had
with new plants I've bought.
Back porch
A side yard
Front door area
Tomato plants
and more flowers
waiting to be planted
A fine example of some of the beauty the previous owner
left for me to enjoy.
And enjoy I do !

Agree with you, I think gardening is perfect to relax.

ReplyDeleteI love the look of your house, Beth. It must be very enjoyable getting to garden in a new place as well as appreciating the plants that the previous owner left.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are gorgeous, and, it is also obvious that your life/world has changed. Made me grin again.
