The Herb Garden: anther place I don't go

What with being excited about the FONA Plant Sale and visiting the Florida Garden, I woke up a bit early this am, left the house a bit early, and so found myself with a half huur window before the day began.....I walked through the Herb Garden, or at least the front part. I forget always, what a wonderful garden this is. Bulbs, Rosemarys, Edible lettuce in an attractive design, the newly redone Rose Garden, and on and on.

I tried t tell GrayC how much I liked it; she, of course, explained all the problems and issues and about the weeds and I realized why the garden was so wonderful. It's not good to be a perfectionist, but it is good to have them in charge of things you care about. I guess....except it seems selfish and unfair to them. I mean, I want emotional balance in my family and friends, but as far as the Redskins and Capitols are concerned I want those players single-minded and driven. I don't want them to have balance in their lives. I want losing to be like death. Except I don't really. When I begin to feel like that I always picture my sons in place of the players and relent.
