Err on the side of kindness. Love more. When life gets bad, try to remember all the good little things. Anything at all.
You got this...
even when you don't think you do.
Been way too cold to go outside and work in the greenhouse. So enjoy a picture of Carl the cat who firmly believes he is the one in charge. He has convinced his humans, my grandchildren, that this is true.

A little hot out there today. But the giant sunflowers are coming up and that makes me happy 😍 #LifeInTheGarden #FlowerPower

This was one of the church plants nobody wanted (there's actually three). When I got it, a lot of the leaves were brown and all of the flowers had died. I went through and cut out everything that was dead so it could grow some new life. So excited that it's blooming #LifeInTheGreenhouse #FlowerPower

The greenhouse bloomed for Christmas! I didn't know what color the Thanksgiving cactus was going to be but I'm so happy with it. And the amaryllis is just gorgeous #FlowerPower #LifeInTheGreenhouse

Peanut got a new home. Yes, the cactus has a name. This is a peanut cactus, so it's obvious where the name came from. We put together a new soil mixture for the cacti and will eventually be replanting all of them with some sand on top. #CactusLife #LifeInTheGreenhouse

Ask and you shall receive. I needed more space for plants and the neighbor was throwing out a pink desk and small plastic cart. My son reconfigured it to give me maximum shelf space and now my plants are "Pretty in Pink" #PlantLife #LifeInTheGreenhouse

I may have a plant problem. New starts (and a couple I bought) that were my project this morning. Now I just need to find a place for everything. But I don't think that's a bad problem to have! #LifeInTheGreenhouse

Some small Cactus starts we got from a friend. My son has decided we should grow all things thorny, and since he does all the heavy lifting I think I'll humor him! #LifeInTheGreenhouse

I'm going to have flowers. On every single branch, including the ones that I took the starts from. All from a small start that was gifted to me. Can't wait to see what color they will be. ##LifeInTheGreenhouse

The geckos are starting to discover the greenhouse. Only a couple in there now, but I love watching them so I hope more comes soon. #LifeInTheGreenhouse

These are a couple cactuses I picked up and actually paid full price for because they were so cool, which if you know me you know is a rarity. But I liked them, so I bought them. #LifeInTheGreenhouse

So nice to have the greenhouse up! I am not restricted to just mornings outside anymore. One of the cactus starts I'm replanting today. #FlowerPower

Finally getting back to the outside. Still not all the way better, but I miss my outside. The boys got the greenhouse up while I was in the hospital, so I have a nice shaded place to do my planting. Had a little helper this morning. #LifeInTheGarden

This is from my front porch. Sometimes a generation forgets they're supposed to be nice, but for the most part, we coexist together in our space with no issues. Peace.

Been sick and missing my garden. #FlowerPower

I just stuck a couple leaves off another plant in the planter and I have babies starting!! Woo hoo! It only took about 8 months. If nothing else, I am learning patience. #LifeOnThePorch

My son left his (almost) empty coffee cup on the porch a bit ago. Apparently he's not the only one that likes his coffee with heavy french vanilla creamer #LifeOnThePorch

The storm a couple of days ago blew all the new leaves of the top of my lemon tree. But my garden dragonfly came to visit anyway. #Dragonfly #LifeInTheGarden

The babies are out playing this morning #LifeInTheGarden

I love watching the geckos in the morning. There's a bunch of little babies running around but I haven't really been able to get any pictures of them. They are very shy. But here's one of the others that wanted to say good morning. #LifeOnThePorch

Good morning. These seeds were supposed to be succulents that were hard to find. Turns out they were not. Just morning glories. That's all right though, teach me to buy seeds on Temu #FlowerPower

Sitting here drinking my coffee and realized that the grapevines had twisted themselves around into the shape of a heart. With the shade from the banana trees, they were just trying to get a little light in their life. #MyLittleGarden
