you are always so kind to me my beautiful friend @Sophia1 i don't feel i am smart, i feel like i am the opposite, learning so many different things has come from nessity, i could not afford to get other people to help me so i had to  learn, i don't regret anything, learning has been amazing and has helped me feel more confident doing things around the house, but my house is as far  as it will ever go.

please don't feel embaressed about your greenhouse, i have adapted an old gazebo to a greenhouse, just covered with shade cloth, not pretty but it does the job. we don't need fancy things to have  a garden, just passion and the feeling of joy of nature. 

im so so glad you are venturing out again and going to the park, yes snakes are bad this time of year, we get red belly black snakes and brown snakes where i live, because it is rural they can really grow to big numbers, i had one try to bite my car tire on christmas day. i know COVID is scary, it is for mum and i too, i always tell mum we wear masks and wash our hands, that is all we can do, if we get it we get it, we have taken all precautions that is all one can do. we need to live life to some extent, diseases as you have mentioned have been around us since cave man days, and im sure we will have future diseases we will need to manage, stay safe my friend, enjoy the little things in life and find happyness in nature and family.

hugs

Jacques
