I love to garden and take care of my four cats.

I have two small gardens, one in my back patio area and one on the side of my house. It is so enjoying and therapeutic to dig in that dirt where I plant my flowers. I usually try to plant annuals along with perennials each year. I also like to pot garden. I have several on my patio.


My cats are the loves of my life. I have three girls and one boy. They range in age from 11 to 20. When they want something they sure let me know. They are sweethearts.
