Involved in gardening since very young. My grandfather farmed 2 acres of every vegetable imaginable, along with fruit trees, nut trees and flowers. Summers were spent harvesting, canning and freezing vegetables. Although I live in a town environment, I still have a vegetable garden and lots of plants and flowers.
I have one son who is in the military that I am extremely proud of, and I am very patriotic. Ended up with my daschund granddog over 3 years ago, but I am basically a cat person. He protects me from lizards and frogs. and the occasional mouse. I have one cat that was abandonded near our shop. Itty is over a year old now & thinks she's a dog. I'm Office Mangler (no misspell) for a Sheet Metal shop for over 24 years, and I'm tired of it. Anyway, I have a few friends that are gardeners, but most just watch. Spending time in my gardens and with my animals is my therapy-I just don't have enough of it!
Pyoung is my brother-I tried to raise him right-some of it took! :)

Labor Day Already!
Man, where did the summer go? It's been awfully humid this summer and I guess I just can't take it like I used to! Always after a hurricane it's so dang humid and hot you can barely breathe-and this was no different. I tried picking up a few branche...
The Humidity is THICK!
It has been so 'humid' these last few days you can barely stand to be outside. Sweating buckets is for real! I have just about nothing growing. My bell pepper that I baby through the summer is suffering badly. Hardly any zinnias are blooming, and ...
What Have I Been Doing?
Hi peeps. Haven't posted much cause I haven't been doing much. It was very hot at the mid-last part of June, with no rain, so my garden was fried. Bugs were worse this year than ever before, so I finally gave up. Now it's been raining so much, I c...
