Helped DM do macrame. Had large gardens and lots of canning...Family illness, farming, and mainly Arthur's visit took that off the list. Have a huge yard, but cannot keep up with flower beds, so have reverted to mostly perennials. The funny thing is that I haven't completely given up on any of it...still have all patterns and books, yarns(with ufo's), paint, etc. Books have to be added to that!
Your gardens may have reverted to perennials but my perennials have reverted to weeds. I just keep telling people that it's ornamental grass & bird seed plants. I really have to make an effort to get things under control before I get ticketed by the city.
