Re: Moving forward

Wow, an @Appleblossom rose, never heard of it, is it red? Kinda cool that you have that something real to remind you of all of us & the progress you've made here.

I'm concerned for @Former-Member, hope she's OK, I haven't been very attentive here of late, somewhat distracted & exhausted, feeling guilty I don't give more.

Did a quick dash grocery shop tonight. Most my fav buys were discounted so stocked up on heaps. Be right now for a while.

Raining here too. How lucky are you not having any lawn
😊. 💜 🌷. 🌸.


Re: Moving forward

Its flowers are white with a hint of pink. I just stumbled across it, liked it and thought it a good idea. I bought a bigger bush with deep red roses too. Will put that in soon.

I have a rockery with shrubs and small trees instead of lawn. It let me have fun and play in the dirt and learn and experiment.  I moved my other small apple tree last week and it seems to be surviving ...

I had done the mowing for 15 years and never regretted the decision to stop ... Yay.

Re: Moving forward

@Appleblossom an 'ex' tricked me into buying her a couple of apple trees during 'breakup phase'.. well she was so sweet about it lol

Re: Moving forward

Sorry that happened @TABI hope it not trick you into thinking I was her.

My ex offered to plant passionfruit in our backyard, but it wasnt with love .. he was cynical & calculating. He probably projected it onto me and I was totally burnt out. I tried to give him affection, family, sex therapy, art therapy ... but it was what it was.

After I left my marriage I took lots of cuttings from the garden and grew them in pots in a little flat with a tiny concrete yard.  Then I carted them all ... like a bloomin mug .. to my new place .. I left him and the girls in the family home but we eventually sold and both bought widdle houses. I never wanted a BV in the burbs anyway.

I planted the cuttings daisies, pelargoniums, & bulbs etc  out in my garden but eventually split & divided them out into my court.  Bought the apple trees years after I separated. One neighbour said I was mad as I planted the 2nd one on council property.  The plants I put in around it had grown up and it wasnt thriving there anyway .. so put it on my land last week ... I was so over all the ... who owns what .. and who takes responsibility for what .. at the moment the Melb Water & the Council are each waiting for the other to do some work .. hmmm .. maybe I have to phone them again ..

It feels like S**t being betrayed when we care .. you seem to be able to be very positive though ..
