The ground is still soppy wet, but the sun is shining and soon it will be dry enough to work up, etc. YIKES! I'm going to have a garden again! <br /><br />Linda... I didn't like it one bit which probably had something to do with why I let the weeds rule. It was my way of rebellion. What I came to love were the flowers and floral design. <br /><br />Thanks to all for stopping by! *hugs*Teresa Ohttp://thecottageonthecorner.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495288606199254522.post-45009121805047401362010-05-23T21:47:21.481-04:002010-05-23T21:47:21.481-04:00this was a great read and your mil is quite someth...this was a great read and your mil is quite something....not sure i would have liked that but seems, in the end, to have been a good thing...i cannot sit here long enough to write my gardening history, maybe a blog post one day as it's too long....i have always been a nut for flowers, not veggies and boxes this year and pots galore are having to do....if i had a gardener to do the hard stuff, i'd have a glorious garden ;) of course, wouldn't we all? xoxL'Adelaidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10725322054223364858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495288606199254522.post-5686582933469422832010-05-23T21:32:42.010-04:002010-05-23T21:32:42.010-04:00Thank goodness for your MIL!

And mom always had clematis, but the real passion must have started somewhere inside myself! It all started with houseplants when I was in high school.

Dad gave me a small patch in the garden where I put in a rock garden filled with moss rose and chickens and hens. Gardening is still my passion.Bevnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495288606199254522.post-87401697669587177062010-05-22T13:03:19.861-04:002010-05-22T13:03:19.861-04:00Thanks for stopping by Alison.

I'm excited...I'm going to have a tiny garden in the yard for the first time in several years. Mostly vegies, but hopefully a few flowers will find they're way in. <br /><br />I so enjoy following you around NYC. I sigh and wish I lived there, but if I did, I'd probably be pining for small town/country life.
