Jan,

I can understand your feeling that way!

Three to four months is a long time!

It sounds like you are gifted with growing things, and found meaning and joy in having a garden on your porch. I'm sorry for this temporary loss.

That's almost funny that Cher doesn't want you to call, b/c of the possibility of your saying what's on your mind.

I'm very sensitive about my space, and can understand your feeling the way you do.

Hugs,

EJ
