Do You See The Forest or The Trees?

My DH sees the forest. Here's the latest pic of the "sort of" garden:

I, on the other hand, see the trees. I choose to. But my vision also includes a peek into the future- a garden with no weeds and no tilling. It's a process that isn't going to happen overnight, maybe not even by next year. I'm one person taking care of house, yard, animals, and family, you know-doing the shopping, paying the bills, mowing, milking, cleaning, vet trips, elder care, poop scooping, and on and on.... I have no hopes of ever doing any of those things perfectly- just attempting to would be insane! But I can be perfectly happy by making small manageable changes, like gradually turning my garden into the one I want! So here's a close-up look at my trees:
zucchini and yellow squash

roma tomatoes

jalapeno peppers

radishes

turnips

cabbages

I swear there's carrots!

cucumbers
That's just a sampling, there's also lettuces, habanero peppers, cayenne peppers, assorted bell peppers, potatoes, cherry tomatoes, striped tomatoes, yellow tomatoes, sage, cilantro,onions.... It's all in there. Somewhere.
