My little Part of Heaven part 2

I'm so very sad today. I was so excited all week as my tomatoes were really getting big (the size of a large orange) and just turning red. We would go get our newspaper every morning and admire the progress of our beautiful tomatoes. My husband kept asking if it was time to bring it in. I kept telling him that we needed to wait until they turned completely red.
The anticipation was building. When we got back from our weekend in Tennessee, we were excited to see that our tomatoes where well on their way of turning the beautiful red we were waiting for. By the weekend, we would be eating our first fresh tomato from our garden (well flowerpot if you want).

I just came in from planting my garden. I've been wanting to do this for a very long time but could never find the time. I was always too busy taking care of my kids and then my husband and then school and then granddaughter, etc.
Well this year, there is no excuse. Plus, I had my youngest stepdaughter planting her first garden from her apartment and she's never home! So I bit the bullet and did it. Instead of planting so many flowers, this year I planted some tomatoes and peppers among them. I also put in some beets, broccoli, beans and lettuce. My only problem with the lettuce is it's now in my neighbor's yard. I had originally planted it two weeks again but it rained so much that it disappeared so I had to start over again.
