I saw those same boots at Target and am so hoping they will still be there the next time I get there.

I almost never read the comments, but I saw your line about getting rid of a rude commentor. Goodness sakes is all I have to say. In the south we say: "play nice or go home!" I enjoy your blog and I love the clothing posts. I love the simplicity of your life. I embrace simplicity in mine and like to see how others are embracing simplicity in theirs. I'm not fifty, yet, but I appreciate the near fifty or over fifty blogs because of women like you that are aging gracefully and enjoying life. You have a refreshing and interesting perspective. I typically don't enjoy the garden posts because where I live it would be impossible to grow such a gatden, but I don't think I could muster a hostile comment about them. Anyway, most of us that come here, come here because we feel you have something relevant to say. My suggestion to the rude commentor is to take a B complex vitamin on a regular basis and maybe he or she will feel more tolerant of others.

I'm trying to talk myself into going vegan, so your blog is a good kick in the right direction, but must learn to deal with this cheese addition I have:) I have recently started growing roses; I've had them for a few years, but last year I moved them all to a dedicated bed and have started to baby them. I have seen some improvment, but still struggle with yellowing leaves. any tips to share? I fertilizer with an organic granule once a month and spray (organic) the leaves periodically. I've started to be more ruthless with my dead heading of the spent blossoms, but pruning is hard for me! I am in Wilmington, NC. So love your blog; I've referred my mom and aunt to you as well so you remind me of them, only more organized:)<br />Best, AvaAvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02369806586215453232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2191490968189022599.post-83185772268896754232012-05-07T04:55:43.886-07:002012-05-07T04:55:43.886-07:00Janet, thank you for such a lovely blog!
