    Hello friends, and welcome to my blog today. June has been flying by, and I thought I’d share a few pieces of my garden with you today. It has been raining a lot, and my plants have been loving it. We live in Northwest Georgia, in zone 8. Though grow zones were officially adjusted a…

    My Dream Came True

    Good morning, friends. It looks like today will be filled with sunshine, with perhaps a rain shower or two. Last night I fell asleep while listening to rain tapping against our roof, and it was so peaceful. I’m a deep thinker, and earlier in the week I was thinking, like I often do. I was…

    A Hard Week and January Hopes and Dreams

    Ah, I’m so glad it’s Friday. This week I’ve been hobbling along, trying to stick to our normal schedule. And friends, it’s felt hard. That’s just the way life is sometimes, isn’t it?
