The garden as therapy

Now, sitting in the State Library, having returned The Persimmon Tree.
Glorious spring day.
Reading The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski. Mesmerizing writing.
Dreaming of working in publishing, anything to do with books and writing.
Contemplating writing an article on the therapeutic benefits of gardening to your mental health.
It is a bit more exciting than writing a straight case study, which has not been inspiring me.
My brother is back in Australia in Port Fairy - such a picturesque spot. Unfortunately he has not been well, wondering how he is going.
Son Julian is working! However he has to travel all the way to Mawson Lakes. But thank goodness all his hard work in hunting for work has paid off - with Form 700, working on a big building for uni SA.
I have booked two weeks hols in January.
Talking gardens with my hairdresser yesterday.
The garden can be a healing activity.
It is just that I lke to make the decisions and let some one else do the actual work(!)
Saw Made in Degenham yesterday at the Capri cinema. Highly charged account of the fledging equal pay campaign for women - enjoyed that trip back to 1968.
