Hi.. I'm Toni & I guess I'm a bit of a whippersnapper here. My DH & I have been married now for 14 years (just had our anniversary last month.. we haven't killed each other yet, so that's a good thing!). I'm way way way too young to retire and I doubt that I will ever be able to retire. My mom has a black thumb and I can kill indoor plastic plants. However, I seem to have *some* luck (be it good or bad luck, I haven't decided yet) with Roses, so that's why I ripped out my front yard of all it's grass & put in roses. I haven't a tenth of the roses that I would like (ie: Zuzu's home ) as I do not have the space or the money for that. Gardening ("playing in dirt" as my husband puts it) is my late spring/summer/early fall hobby & canaries are my early fall/winter/early spring hobby (not much to do with canaries in the summer as that's when they molt). I will also admit that I'm a crappy gardener as I change my mind way too often. I've owned my home now since Aug 05 and changed the front yard .. 7? times now? However, my hobbies do relax me a lot as I have a pretty icky, stressful job and to be able to dig a hole "and bury a body" as my neighbor puts it is a wonderful thing for me. I also have too many cats, 3 dogs (1 new addition), 4 cockatiels, and I'm down to 6 aquariums. No human kids.. can't afford them (nor could I even have one, even if I wanted one). uh.. oh, and I'm boring. :D
