happy, happy , joy, joy, hello there..

Hi everyone,
I see this is the place to introduce myself and tell you or bore you, smiles. with a little about yours truly.

Well I've always been into gardening, from when I was a little girl of about 5 or 6 when I was given my own little patch of garden to work.
Then over the years its become more and more of a love and a hobby, just doing my own thing, learning as I went along.
I live on the edge of the beautiful cannock chase in staffs. I have quite a good size garden, divided into different arrears.
My other loves are my kittys and my photography.
Now you have no doubt all heard the saying, that some things are blessings in disguise, well this is now true for me.
Over the past two years my health has gone down hill quicker than a down hill skier of a high slope....To the point where I had to stop working a few months ago, this is where my blessing in disguise come into it. Work had always got in the way of all the things I wanted to do in my garden. Now I can make it my passion not just my love.
To top it off, the icing on my cake so to speak is, I've just acquired two green houses, one 12ft -8ft and a 8ft-6ft.
I know you will all understand my Bliss....

This brings me to here, this place where I hope to learn and grow, just like my garden, so please give me all the help and inspiration you can, I have so many ideas, dreams and visions, all this things Id like to grow..I'm pretty much starting from scratch, all advice gratefully received.

I look forward to getting to know you and chat about our shared interests.
hugs x

 

Welcome specialagentscully from staffs, hope you enjoy GC.

I can well understand your pleasure at having 2 greenhouses! I have one 6x8' and it's too small, but can't afford more. As you're a photographer you'll be in good company, loads of talented people taking beautiful pictures. Have you any yet?
I hope your health doesn't physically prevent you from gardening- mine does so I spend long hours doing things that would take someone else 30mins.
Hope you like the forum.

 

Welcome Scully :D You'll find that a number of us here really came to life after early retirement proved to be a blessing in disguise. Look forward to seeing your photos
