Mom to 3 if you count the cat. I have been gardening for about 6 years. I grow 98 percent of my plants from seed. I have a grow stand, a mini grow lab, and 2 4foot grow lights over the kitchen counter. I spend most of the spring, summer and early fall outside. I also paint (decorative), do needlework and sewing. I am taking some courses this summer, I would like to have a custom sewing/ alteration and custom embroidery service. The rest of my time is spent at the bowling alley with Colin and Cody. They are the most precious things I have raised. The only other things to share are that I have lupus and early stage MS.
