I've felt the same way, lately.  For me I think it's different reasons, 
though.

Life has been so hectic and everything else is a priority instead.  It's
depressing to see the garden in this state, but I can't really do anything
about it.  I also can't afford to buy new plants now either, so if I
do anything it will just be to maintain the current plantings.

There's also the community aspect.  When I worked in the garden I 
looked forward to talking to everyone online about what I was 
growing, etc.  Now that sense of community is diminished, so it's
a more lonely endeavor.

I would *love* to be able to spend time gardening again.

Chris

P.S.  It's good to see these emails flowing again!  :D
P.P.S.  Happy belated birthday, Auralie!
