The part I don't like is when someone points me out and says something stupid about gardening. The next door neighbor's daughter was exclaiming about our gardens a week ago and her mother said, "Yeah, she likes to do that". Not that I enjoy gardening but I "like to do that". I'll have to say that about her paintings sometime.

Sounds like a good use for your spot, Mary. I love the planning. It gets me through winter even when I make a mess of my plans.

I love that I can grow/buy dahlias that bloom from May to mid November. Last year I had these small border type dahlias blooming from early May through to November but their tubers froze in the garage over winter.
