Daily Face: April 14th

Today was a good day at work. However when I am at work I can't wait to get home, play in the dirt, create art, and read a good book, but instead when you get home there's laundry, dinner to cook, house to clean and a host of to do's.

Daily Face: March 26th & 27th and Gardening

The sun came out yesterday and I was so busy playing in the dirt that I forgot to post a daily face portrait. However today the sun is not out, so I'm not rushing to get outside. My Camilla bloomed and I made a bouquet, I made a trellis out of some cables my husband was throwing out. I used Honeysuckle vines to tie them together. My favorite new plant called a Angelina Creeper. I purchased last year at an estate sale. It survived the winter and now it is beginning to creep again.

Fourborne has been Gardening

Recently I wrote a post about gardening, which inspired me to get back out there in the dirt. The new house we moved into doesn't have the yard space as my old house, but I like it. Hostas had already been planted in backyard, however I had to move some of them, also I split some of them so I would have more. I made a little green house but I want a real one made with recycled windows. I only have two windows but I hope to keep collecting until I have enough to do what I want. I placed two new frogs in my garden and two bird houses. Although one is not a real bird house it's a cabinet that I am using to store some of my gardening tools. I found a bench while I was cleaning the yard. I hope to repair it. The arms are cast iron. I made a path with some tiles I found behind the shed. A pathway always seems enchanting.
