I'm grateful that Mom is home and sleeping comfortably.

Everyday she feels better and the pain lessens in her arm.

I stand in front of the K-Mart at Penn awaiting the track announcement for the Long Beach train... today I looked inside and there was a huge display of seed packets... SPRING!!!  March 20th... 51 days from today... what a nice thought!  Mom loves sunflowers.

Seeing all those seed packets and pictures of bright colored flowers gave me pangs of missing the gardens I planted and tended to in 2 previous homes... places that I had lived in what seems another life within this life.  Even in the winter I enjoyed my garden...  the branches awaiting their time to bud again... the open spaces where I knew what perrenials were going to pop up...  thinking about going to Atlantic Nursery in Freeport to pick out the annuals for the season...  I'm grateful that I planted those gardens...
