I said I was done yesterday gardening but when I visited it early this morning, I opted to repaint our concrete garden seat which we bought several years ago. Early on, we used to eat breakfast here when we still had our avocado tree as shade and bamboo slots atop our perimeter fence. Since we had to install new slots every four or five years, I had it changed to steel matting. I had my small pots hang there. Occasionally, I still drink my morning coffee here with all our Aspins running around. Bamboo fencing is nice though because it is cool and gives you that privacy from passing cars and people. Will just post the photos on my other blog. https://arlene1027@wordpress.com

It's been some years since I started this blog. Supposedly, it was only to share my plight as a cancer patient and survivor but over the years it has somehow evolved into something personal about my life and my family. So really glad to have met you all wonderful people out there. Someone commented once that he liked the title of this blog, Dreams and Escapes. Dream on, there are more things in life than we really think. Be happy, you only live once. Sometimes you also need an escape from the vicissitudes of life and this blog helps me cope. Welcome. Feel free to leave your comments, I do welcome them.
