Sorry for the long absence. 2.28.18
Sorry for the long absence. I suffered a retinal detatchment that required emergency surgery, followed by extended bedres and restricted activity. Then Ning developed unstable coronary artery syndrome and required emergency coronary artery bypass (heart) surgery, and now needs 8 weeks of home care. If it's not one thing it's another.

I'm sorry
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteSorry all of that has happened to you, Daniel. Hoping for your speedy recovery and the strength to take care of Ning. Jack
ReplyDeleteThank you Jack. As they say, it don't rain but it pours. I'm finding more strength, and have been getting into the garden more the past few days.
DeleteI have followed your blog for some time now, and have been missing your posts. The reason is because your blog is the most focused, honest, and forthcoming of all the garden blogs I follow. I am so sorry to hear the circumstances surrounding your absence. I pray that you are receiving an abundance of grace, patience, strength, and peace during this challenging time. Toni
ReplyDeleteThank you Toni. You don't know how much that means to me. I chose not to accept ads on this blog, so it would not be biased by financial interest. It's just the story of what I'm growing and what I'm thinking. Probably the worst bias, is I forget the things that don't work, and often don't post the failures for that reason. Really, I should. Thank you so much, Toni, and you will see the blog is up and running again.
DeleteDaniel, here's wishing you a speedy recovery, both in mind and body.
ReplyDeleteThanks Randy. I really appreciate it.
DeleteYes, Daniel, there is always something, & we cope as best we can. I think of you often.
ReplyDeleteThanks Patricia. It's been rough. You are right, there is always something. I'm working on moving forward, and there are some new posts today.
DeleteI'm still wondering what the golden part of the golden years means....hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what happened to you. I wish you speedy recovery for you and Ning. I missed your post a lot. When I'm gardening, I often think what you will be doing in your garden. Hope your garden aid in your healing. Lance
ReplyDeleteSorry for the lost of Charlie, Daniel. My dog die from car accident also. Hopefully you feel a lot better after surgery .
ReplyDeleteI just would like to ask you . Why you chose Nikita's grift persimmon to try at beginning? And did you try some different for now?
I just ordered Giombo and Sheng persimmon to plant in Seattle areas . How do you think about them? Thank you so much for all information Daniel.
