Where have I been?

I'm not exactly sure why I have not blogged or started the garden yet. It is now March and I am still in the contemplation phase? I guess the disappointment of my beautiful hydrangeas has left me a bit scared. It's like I have this fear of killing a whole new batch. Every time I pass the front lawn I look over that side of the yard and I feel like I can't accept what happened. I tried my best and it still failed?! Well as with life I need to move on and pick myself up. First I must clean the area and then I will try something different start from the foundation and test the soil. The sun has been shining and I think it is calling me back to the garden. I remember this Sunday morning when I was watching a program on business weekly and they were interviewing this successful business man. They asked him what was the secret of his success. His answer will always stay with me. "The secret of my success is my many failures. With each failure I perfected success."
