Michelle, this sounds like a wonderful opportunity. We've seen you grow so very much through this whole process, the opportunity to inspire others can't be passed up! If you want a reminder, look back at the pink book. The early days were filled with a mix of fear and petulance, and as you got a grip on the whole thing, you became a Cancer Fighting Goddess. And a Mom. What a story!

I got in a good workout today - I finished the last 1/3 of the back yard and then mowed the front. My neighbor did one part next to her yard a couple of days ago, so I did 2/3 of the front. (I had mixed up a bottle of vinegar and orange oil to spray those weeds - when I walked out, they were all gone, mowed!) My yard is a rough cut, lots of weeds, but I can now go out with the weed popper and get rid of some of the worst roots and basel whorls out there in the turf. (Weed popper and many other tools courtesy my friend who lost his house to foreclosure.) I put up some LED lights to hang from the top of the green house today (also bought from my friend) as I worked on other things out there. Last year I accidentally bought some of those "icicle" LED strings, but they look good hanging from a high ceiling in the greenhouse - they'll make it look enchanted if I have them on at night if I have people over and we're on the patio or in the yard. Or in the greenhouse. :)
