BIO
Hi there (LOL) this is me Susan This was about 41/2 yrs ago I still look the same only my hair is shorter:) I have been married for 25yrs to Danny and have a son Bruce 31,by my first husband, I am also owned by my wonderful confidante, Winston my darling daschaund and Mere Kitty the new Persian kitten:) I am a Breast Cancer Survivor, was in remission but it has mestastized from my breast to my spine (bone cancer) Can't operate or do a biopsy even due to the location....My Dr told me if they were to go in...and do a biopsy ,they know air would touch it and well that would be all of me.........and I would soon be down for the count...my family Dr said he thought it was just wonferful..
I am currently taking chemo and stay in pain a lot of the time.....please forgive me if I don't answer your ebots right away.......Somedays I stay in bed for 2 to 3 days.....and wake up in the middle of the night crying in pain....I am trying to have a cheerful attitude with this and just thanking God I can wake up every day and try to smile and enjoy life..
I love to garden, read, take pics and play with my daschaund..I also have poems on Allpoetry.com under the name of Blushfulmoon......Would love to get them published someday....If you go visit me please tell me your from Renderosity.....Thank you for all your comments and keep me in your prayers..I need them so bad.....Oh I forgot to mention I am 52 years old....born March 25th 1955 making me an Aries..I am very true to what the astrologers say about the sign..........I make friends easy..sometimes quick tempered but cool off in a manner of minutes.....I can't stand anyone being mad at me........LOL.......I am so thankful for all the friends I have made here on Renderosity.....You are all special in my heart:)
Love all of you all
Hugs n love
Susan aka Blush

Beautiful flower and excellent shot!!!*

Such a beautiful vivid blossom. Great shot and salad info. There are many flowers that are edible, including pansy and rose petals. :o) CC

Yes they're also known as 'poor man's capers' and are delicious pickled. Nasturtiums are brilliant in poor soils - where they produce fewer leaves per flower - and are so adaptable. Thanks for a lovely photograph, Susan!
