Re: How Gardens Improve Your Mental Health

Well Josh, I don't get the WSJ, but I believe gardening is not only good for 
your physical health, but does wonders for one's mental health.  
Coincidentally, the WSJ can inflict physical harm......After my divorce and 
after finally getting him to move out a few months later, he said he was done 
moving all his stuff.  I said, "What about your collection of WSJ?"  Well, he 
didn't want them if HE had to move them.  The closet was full of old WSJ and 
some NYT.  Mind you, this was the largest closet in the house.  I finally got 
the boy scouts to come get them, but I pulled a muscle in my back getting them 
out to the garage.  However, the improvement to my mental health of getting rid 
of all those newspapers was just what I needed.
