a feeling of motherhood



I have put so much time and devotion and love into my yard, and most of all the many many rose bushes that fill my yard. Well the rewarding time and season of my new babies comming to life is here!!!! I MIGHT have a total of 15 flowers that are bloomed in my yard, and there is probably a total of about 1,500 that should bloom over the next couple weeks.(and no, that is NOT an exageration) Anyway i can't began to explain how powerfully wonderful it makes me feel inside to finally see some of my many children that I have devoted myself to finally come to life.

my new creation and my new palace...


I don't understand what exactly it is that I did in this lifetime of mine to deserve this beautiful life and this beautiful home that I have got for myself. I have put every free moment I have into my new palace that I am crazy in love with. I have not wrote in so long, partly because I have enjoyed so much of my free time with my new best friend.....my yard, my garden. My new yard is peace. Complete peace is harder to find than you may think. But the palace and the beautifu garden I have created in my yard is something that I personally find as complete peace

Dandelions.....is peace.



I can't explain how beautiful and truly remarkable dandelions are to me. They are a symbolism of so many things to me....two main things being freedom...freedom of flight and independent and chasing or flaoting away really to the place and the things you desire and are meant to be at or due. This symbolizes my life so much right now.....just trying to remind myself to be a dandelion and do whats best for me at the end of the day. The other thing is represents to me is wishes.....which I imagine ties so much into the previous thing. Make wishes. believe in your wishes. My your wishes and dreams a reality. follow those wishes untill they become a reality. And that, and dandelions, to me is PEACE

my little treehouse of plants and love.







I have officially come to terms that I have a plant shopping/redecorating problem. Today was sunny....I woke this morning and made myself my favorite little egg scramble with tempeh, peppers,garlic,tamari, siracha hot sauce and Avocado, poured a delightful glass of my own little fresh squeezed OJ and nestled into my new little "room" in the corner of my bedroom that I spent last night creating by sectioning off a corner of my room with plants. Yes plants. I found a way to make a room divider essentially with a combination of hanging plants from the ceiling coming down into a wall of tall floor plants.....i covered my new little area with amazing colorful floor pillows and its lovely. I sit there this morning with my scramble and OJ....and I decide my good of the day today was to go save a plant from a store somewhere that wasn't treating it the way it should, instead of heading to my usual Greys plant store where my sweet little gay plant specialist Jeff treats a huge greenhouse full of house plants like his own children. Not today . I went to Home Depot where I found a whole world full of sweet innocent plants on steroids. I'm talking plants that are huge and beautiful.....and hundreds of them. I picked up the first one my eyes ran towards. My most favorite trusty house plant,a chiflera. I looked at the price expecting no less than a $60 price tag on it based on the size of this thing. Instead I read $7.50. Long story short i bought a few....maybe a few to many. A couple of all different kinds. I'm getting a bit off track here but I have to just take a moment to tell you about the nightmare i saw when I went to re pot these poor little guys at home. these things are so root bound its unbelievable...the only way these plants can possibly still be living is from so many plant steroids its unreal. It's terrible. It made me want to go back and save them all. i It will be a major challenge for me to keep these guys alive while slowly weening them off plant stimulator's and steroids.
Okay, back to my point. My new little plant walled cozy corner of my room in incredible with the addition of my new sweet friends. However at the end of this all i went through and counted my house plants in this little tree house of mine.....and much to my surprise the final tally was 47. I have a problem. I've got to get this under control. But at the end of the day here I am nestled into my lovely little corner again with all my sweet plants.always,
