Another Country Fried Weekend


Rained all day Saturday then cleared up in time for a rather lovely sunset and a chance to see what's happening in the garden.

There are a few plants doing nicely!




and we have a little visitor every night, you always hear him before you spot him, funny supersonic bee type sound.


I've woken up to some lovely displays of nature at its finest.


and I have amazing neighbors across the street, couldn't ask for better, and good looking too!


Yesterday, I tackled one of the front gardens.  A MESS!


But about an hour later, it was looking considerably better.


As you can see, there are still boxes waiting to be sorted and unpacked.  Moving is a process, it takes time, right?


I am so incredibly content here.  I am in love with my house and my property and actually wake up every day grateful to the long dead people who built it and put such beautiful things in as these windows.



I would like to fix this front door bell so it works again.


My little glass fish is pretty happy in this window.


Every day feels like a rainbow day!  This move has been one of the best things I've ever done.  In fact, it has given me the guts to make further life changes, working on those RIGHT NOW!

Its been a bajillion years since I have read anybodies blogs. I just found yours again through Mazzy. I am in love with your new house and property too. Those windows are mind blowing beautiful and the doorbell is very charming too. I hope you get it to work :)

This post made me so happy to see that someone out there is genuinely joyful about their life and home and challenges that come with attaining all that good stuff in life-what makes it worth all the crazy shit that comes along with happiness. If that makes sense?

I am so glad I read this. I am going to remind myself of all the wonderful things that surround me at this moment. Thank you.

Thank you! I am so happy that I am finally able to write like this!

It's taken me a long time to get here and a LOT of self-doubt got in the way of this destination. I am sure the journey (and struggle) is not over yet, but I am so much more motivated to mold my life into what I WANT and not what everyone thinks it should be!
