Really good at killing most plants (except Bermuda grass which is not really a plant, but some evil alien life form), but absolutely love growing from seed and have been pretty successful with that. Due to severe back problem and MS, no longer able to garden outdoors, and am trying to find a reasonable indoor substitute. Will miss my Hybrid Teas and other roses terribly, and feel sorry for whatever I do manage to squeeze into the house under shop lights. Will be giving away most of what I sprout this year. Am going to try some cherry tomatoes for 1st time, as I'm country born & bred and love real tomato taste-will not buy tomatoes at grocery store. Married with 3 kids ages 20,21,& 22 (as of Feb. '05). Oldest son will start med. school this fall, and feel very blessed that all 3 are reasonably intelligent, good kids, as my one prayer when diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 18 years ago was that the Lord let me raise my babies. Work part-time with hubby at his (our) small animal hospital of 20 years, and love the people and their pets. Other hobbies are- reading, knitting and other fiber arts,scuba diving, and of course our pets which are 2 dogs and 2 cats. Love to talk!! Feel free to e-mail me to chat gardening, pets, or just about anything that's not actually indecent. Knew I'd never get this written without talking too much.....
