Hello All

I failed to say anything before leaping in here. Didn't know I could. Boy am I finding a lot of wonderful info on this site.

I am confined to a wheelchair when out doors. I have very little balance so can't walk on uneven surfaces. I have 4 grown children that have little interest in gardening. I have 2 dogs, 5 birds and did have a 20 year old cat who died a few month ago.

I had polio as a baby. I was in an motorcycle accident 10 years ago and was severly injured and had to have a hip replaced. Five years ago I had colon cancer and am doing very nicely from that. Three years ago I had a serious illness that finished my lungs off and am now on oxygen 24 hours a day.

I adore gardening and house plants. I am extremely slow and nothing looks the way I want. It is hard to get help with yard work.

Sorry to rattle on. I'd love to have someone that has the same interest I have to chat on line with once in a while.

Happy gardening and I am happy to be here.

Welcome from the heart of dixie....though I'm really a yankee transplant. :)

I wish I lived close enough to you to some and visit. I love gardening and would be happy to help. Unfortunately, we're many miles apart.

I wish you the best though and hope you enjoy DG.

Hi Honibee. You have come to the right placde for companionship and new friends. I have made so many dear friends since february 2001. Everyone here is great. To me this is home away from home. I just love spending time here. But be for warned, Daves can be addicted!!!!!!lol,lol,lol,

But atleast it is a good addiction.
Again hello and welcome.

Hi, HoniBee! It's nice to know you a little better. Welcome to DG - I bet you'll like gardening with us :)

Welcome HoniBee from the Lone Star state. Please don't feel bad I did the same as you, jumped right in before I introduced myself to. So glad you found DG, you'll grow to love it here. There are so many kind and caring people in the garden and you'll make allot of new friends. I haven't been here very long but already I'm addicted to. Looking forward to seeing your posts and chatting with you.
