Gardening

Gardening is giving me a good nights sleep. Unfortunately going to sleep early... I wake up earlier. and then get tireder and go to sleep even earlier... etc. In the past week have planted an Almond tree, six blackberry bushes, two hydrangeas, 9 lilac bushes, 2 butterfly bushes and 7 rose bushes. Perhaps, I won't have to wait until our other house is sold in order for this place to look landscaped. But, even with all that it is a drop in the bucket. The question is... should one try to landscape three acres? The land is so beautiful and the trees... love the trees, I'm not really going for anything other than natural with a little stamp of color. The answer is no, of course don't try to landscape, just adding a bit to the natural beauty. Funny, didn't know I would enjoy gardening, but then didn't know I would love cooking or many other things... life is just beginning in my forties.
