Under Construction

  • Gardening Background

  • Biographical Information
    I have always liked Gardening.I've always had plants indoors and out. I have a cottage garden behind my house that I have been redoing the last 2 years. I have replacement knees so gardening has been a little harder since I can't get up and down very easy. I am a grandmother of 4 and I take care of my little grandson 18 months old part time. I have started losing weight and intend to lose at least 80 lbs and I have lost 36 lbs. so far. I live in Nort Texas.
