Getting old means … spending time in physical therapy (not from a sport injury.. but from buying the wrong shoes) 😣😂

In the pioneers’ days… if you wanted a new pillow or a soft mattress… you would collect every feather you found from your chickens or ducks until you had enough. So if you want a new pillow by Christmas? You would start saving today…

I love a good series… but sometimes when I have limited time to read I will choose stand alone…
What about you?
HaPpY Saturday, everyone!!!! Hope you are more successful at forming a gang than I was 😉
For me.. Research looks like wearing a dress to do my gardening… (I wonder if pioneer women had to deal with cats climbing up their skirts?)

Blurb:
Can digging and weeding, planting, and pruning equal love?
Nursing is Holly Cooper’s vocation, and her sanctuary, until she witnesses a murderous attack during emergency surgery. Her childhood fear of never belonging resurfaces. Untethered, she’s following music festivals down Australia’s eastern seaboard, sometimes working as a nurse, sometimes as a volunteer.
Reclusive gardener Christopher (Kit) Silverton needs a nurse for his half-finished research project: the therapeutic power of gardening. In plain English, can digging and weeding, planting, pruning, hacking, or any one of those activities help kids to heal after domestic violence? A survivor himself, he knows what it’s like to live with pain, guilt, and relationships that end in tears.
When Kit’s partner, and on-site nurse, is injured, she suggests her granddaughter, Holly Cooper, as a replacement. Holly has the qualifications, but Kit will need convincing that a pink and green haired free spirit has anything to offer the project.
As the garden develops, passion blooms between Holly and Kit. When security on the site is breached, Kit confronts his worst nightmare. Defending the kids and Holly proves his critics right—violence lives within him. Can Holly overcome her own doubts to prove he’s wrong?
Jennifer Raines’s books evoke the romance of Nora Roberts’ books but set in the sweeping Australian countryside. PLANTING HOPE proves that love can overcome demons and let our true self shine through. Don’t miss this story that blooms like a garden of hope.
Very true!!!! But all you need is a few people that know you cover to cover…
Just received this book today, co-written by a friend (Todd R Otten). We have had 24 years of medical frustrations in our family. I am very interested to read from a physician’s perspective.
Kindred spirit here… 😏😂
Author Jules Nelson will be at the shop this Saturday 10-2 pm. Stop by and see her 😊
