Sharing again, my lemonade tree...
Because of our shady yard, the branches all go the same direction.
Hoping that direction is a good one... Bottle tree story:
My love and I had a tiff about the bottle tree.
We had an old crab apple tree that was ugly. Cut it down I said.
He refused.
So I made it into a bottle tree. He hated it..take down the bottles..ugly.
I said no, every respectable southern garden has a bottle tree.
Then it fell down on its own..the roots rotted..ugh..
Miraculously a starter came up next to it...now all grown up into a new tree.
A bottle tree...making lemonades out of lemons...
I love it so.
It reminds me of us.

When life is too hard...just "Go Sew" and so I am.
You will be happy to know that I am going to bed early tonight...lest I start the maudlin bit.

Such is the life...it is good to have each other.
