Just enough to make one weekly payment

The coconuts and areca nuts were picked up and the amount I received is just enough to make one weekly payment of the maids. We make no money with whatever we grow here as we spend far more than what we earn But the joy we get to see those coconuts up on trees and the areca nuts that are picked up makes my day The lush green surroundings loaded with oxygen is priceless

It's actually priceless. And take it from someone staying in a concrete jungle of urban settlement. Even I spend around 5 K on an average monthly on my garden. We do get some vegetables from it but not worth the investment. But I am blessed to have a beautiful view every morning to start my day. Nothing can replace that joy of walking around and seeing my healthy plants and lovely blooms

We both have lovely stories to share Solitaire is a guzzler and that is what I told that Trust to whom it has been gifted They will have to see that money comes from Solitaire if that is their goal.

@allknowing I know that it would be tough to let it go, something that you have nourished and nurtured so long. I am sure that they can monetize it to the fullest. For us, having a morning tea amidst the beautiful garden is a precious return. It's like those garden restaurants which charge you a bomb in name of their ambience. We get that kind of ambience every morning.

@arunima25 To start with I will spend from my Trust which will be closed and money transferred to their Trust where I too am now a member I am forever in the attitude of gratitude for the kind of ambience that I could create
