I think when we are annoyed by another's contentment it's just because we want what they've got and are afraid we'll never have it. Furthermore, to be hopeful of attaining it means risking disappointment and failure, especially when attaining it means taking responsibility for the life you have. Guess what? Contented people do exist who will delight with you in your happiness and love you all the more. It's all good.Laine Meadowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12200331208503181620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-29801962245705839562013-06-30T13:59:27.952-07:002013-06-30T13:59:27.952-07:00They ARE so pretty.

I had no idea hops were so pretty--I'm a sucker for form and function all rolled into one amazingsauce package.

It's kind of amazing to get to watch someone decide to make a major change in their lives, and then GO DO IT. Besides, I cling sort of desperately to your garden tales; it's been cold and rainy here for pretty much ever, and my gardens have just decided to stop growing (except the weeds of course). I think I saw a tomato plant give me the finger yesterday.edhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13537872932411668279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-57276699407918601712013-06-26T15:41:09.095-07:002013-06-26T15:41:09.095-07:00Yep - we're working up an IPA recipe for this ...Yep - we're working up an IPA recipe for this crop. :)FinnyKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813175777047535103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-60930913968394619512013-06-26T15:35:21.124-07:002013-06-26T15:35:21.124-07:00And that, sister friend, is a gorgeous sentiment. ...And that, sister friend, is a gorgeous sentiment.

I can be happy AND snarky. That's how good I am.<br /><br />Meanwhile - I can't believe that alyssum doesn't take over regardless of where it falls. I've weeded a ton of it out of my hopyard and still - there it is. I mean, I do want it there (brings in TONS of beneficials and covers the soil), but wow - it's invasive-y.FinnyKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813175777047535103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-9956786740010829772013-06-26T12:19:56.913-07:002013-06-26T12:19:56.913-07:00is brewing next? - is brewing next? - Yours Trulyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02267388458434723952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-2681536433749836082013-06-26T05:28:36.932-07:002013-06-26T05:28:36.932-07:00There's nothing wrong in your life?

Yeah, it's fun to listen to people bitch (or read about it), but is ALSO fun to see people who have figured out what to do so they don't HAVE to bitch. Because sometimes, I get all, "yeah yeah, that sucks--what're you going to DO about it?" And you did something about it. And you are happy.<br /><br />For which you deserve commendation, not condemnation because your life is happy due to your own efforts.

;-)
Seriously...Happy Finny is boooooorrring!!! <br /><br /><br />;-)<br /><br />Seriously though - that's great to hear things are going so smoothly! Cool hydroponics pics - neat! And love LOVE LOVE all the sweet alyssum at the base of the hops!! Definitely my favorite annual for the flower beds, deck pots, etc - with such an intoxicating smell! Unfortunately, most of mine is having a rough time of it this year - my from-seed attempts had an "oops, I forgot to water them" and most died off, and then the flat or so I bought have been going back and forth between fried and drowning out in the beds or even deck pots. Oh well - SOME should hopefully make it...<br /><br />Looks forward to more fun pics, even if you are happy. ;-)Jephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843262392217281569noreply@blogger.com
