What lawn or garden chore do you find the most difficult, challenging, tedious, unpleasant, etc., and why?Picking green beans. You have to crouch into a horrible position, it seems endless and I don’t even like to eat them.
What’s your favorite thing to grow, and why?Sunflowers. I love watching them shift and “look” the same direction. I love all the flowers. Also, love growing pumpkins. They just expand and seem to grow before your eyes.
What emotions do you experience when you think about downsizing?In a way sort of mixed. We have a small farm. One year my husband had a series of operations and I had to carry the weight of all for months at a time. It was one of the biggest challenges I’ve ever faced. Even just plugging along in survival mode took about everything I had. Anyway, I’m sure we can’t keep on forever at this so perhaps we would feel a bit of relief without all this physical work. On the hand it will be break my heart because I truly love it.
When do you expect to downsize your living arrangements?I expect to live in my current home until the end of my life.
How would you feel about having to give up 50% or more of your current possessions in a downsizing move?
Piece of cakeNeutralCompletely overwhelmed
Complete this phrase: “Spring is _.”Frizzy hair
