Warm Fuzzies

Posted in Affirmation, Gardening, Musings at 8:24 am by admin

My next-door neighbor came over yesterday while I was working in the yard, and told me how she thought my yard looked really good. She’s been watching all of this time while I convert from lawn to natural landscape, and it meant a lot to me that she would stop and say that. Another lady from the neighborhood had just passed by and said “It’s looking great - you’ve done a lot of work.”

It is a great feeling to have people independently give me unsolicited praise on my ever-changing, er, masterpiece. It gives me a big boost after the City wanted to give me a fine. I hope this doesn’t unbalance my yard karma!
