Helping myself and others

Hello everyone it's been a while since I last posted. I'm in a much better place now. I have set up a community garden and run it with other people struggling with different health problems. I know it sounds like it would be all about health problems but because we're all having something to focus on we put it to the side and if you're having a bad day you can just sit and relax. Some days I can't speak at all some days my legs don't work but it's OK. And I've found peace with it. I'm not saying it's easy but I'm doing so much better mentally anyway .Take care of yourself XOXO

Hi again Duchess. A shared outdoor project can be a lifesaver for those of us with health issues. The rewards of being amongst like -minded folk and tending plants is a sure recipe for positivity and maybe some much needed humour.

Gardening's when I'm happiest ; I'm so focused on the trees & plants (& on fixing stuff) that the odd cuppa from my partner, and my foxes lounging around, is more than enough company. Shorter days are coming but I find any excuse to get outdoors, all year round.

I struggle at present whilst waiting for knee surgery, but where there's a will . . πŸ˜πŸ˜‰

Keep on keeping on, when you can, m'love πŸπŸŒΏπŸƒπŸŒ³πŸž

Hello I'm so glad you think so we're in Neilston. We have gardening days but is some times just a meet and chat. We're doing a Halloween party for the local kids. So we're getting ready for that.
