i still don't feel quite at home.
my thoughts keep wondering back to a house that i shared with my sister heather on washington street (849 wash). for some reason that is the last house that felt like home to me. i am not sure why? it could be that i lived there with my sister and that my father stayed with us for sevreal months?? or maybe it was just my bedroom that i miss the most, it did have a fireplace in it....?
but the idea that i live here now is growing on me.
i dream about the front yard now.
how i want the front yard to be a secret garden space-away from the neighbors and their ball/toy stealing children!
i have been looking at japanese garden design recently and i have the desire to design a front wall and gate system based on what i have seen....but my own??? does this make sence? i want the walls to have open window ports so the scene from out side becomes a picture hanging on the wall (find the best shots of our neighbors houses).
i also have been pondering how to tie the houses together better using the courtyard. i do want to plant pear trees infront of the little house. the little house looks so bare from the steet side. and i still would like strings of lights across the courtyard, this is a dsicussion between gio and i. i am for the lights gio's against.
i also need to research potted trees that can make it through the winter in colorado. this winter has had a few snow storms but we haven't been that cold. at my garden at 17th street my lettuces, cilantro, arugula and mustard greens are all still actively growing!
so i have a lot to still think about. i guess i should just start sketching out what's in my head....
gio update: last week gio and i went snowboarding!
he is getting soooo much better!
he was keeping up with me on the greens!!!!!
soon enough he'll be back country with me and markj!!!
happy valentines day to all....xxoo
