Gardening at 81

May 26, 1999

Help! I’m having a geriatric crisis! I always thought it would happen, but not yet. This year I can’t get down on my knees to plant my seedlings. The poor spindly things are looking out the window at the garden. I hope they can hold out until I find a garden seat where I can sit and work. I’m having therapy and I think it is helping – meanwhile I remember and thank God for all those years I worked in my garden on my knees.
