Arlene - I like your perspective. (I need a perspective change.) I often see what still needs to be done instead of enjoying what I already have accomplished.
When I first started adding gardens to my yard, my husband was less than thrilled. He said it was too much clutter! (He subscribed to the expansive lawn and bordering shrubs with a tree or two added.) LOL! And maybe it was too cluttered when I first started and was experimenting. But over time, his attitude has changed. As has the rest of my family. Now my husband and I both feel it is our little escape from the stress of work and the curve balls that life can sometimes throw our way. Nice to sit out there in the cool of the shade or late afternoons after work and take a deep breath. And exhale and enjoy!
