I can't believe June is upon us already. I find times flies when I work in the garden. For those who know me, you know that I have a bit of an obsession with gardening. I think the appeal for me is the rewards of such incredible beauty, plus there is something very cathartic about digging into the soil and ripping out the weeds. Every week there is a new plant either starting to shoot up from the ground or about to bloom. There's never a dull moment in the life of a gardener. And as my sister's facebook profile reads; If you have drama, you are are not spending enough time in the garden. For me the garden is my drama, especially when the deer eat a plant that is just about to bloom!! :( . And if this is all the drama I have in my life at the time being, then I have a lot to be thankful for!
