Natural Therapy

Today, it is unseasonably crisp and cool out, a mere 70 degrees at 11:30am... I'll take it! I can't resist being outdoors. The birds are a chirping symphony and it is so soothing. I can get lost in my surroundings. We planted many new plants last weekend and watering them is like therapy for me. There's just something about nurturing them and watching them mature. I do a lot of thinking while I water and garden; sometimes, silence is of greater value to me than trying to explain my feelings to someone. I am so excited for the next planting project. We are truly transforming our lawn, front to back! It's going to take a lot of time, and tons of money, but will be well worth it when I can cut Caroline loose to run freely! C and I spend 99% of our time at home, not by choice, but that's how it is, so I want to LOVE my home. The changes to the interior of our house are vast, and our focus has currently shifted outside, it is "grow time." I love decorating and making a house a home. I have a vision in my head and am slowly seeing it become reality. I am so thankful Jacob is handy...he can do anything! I can explain something to him, show him a picture or draw it myself, and he makes it happen! Decorating is also therapy for me. I love anything that gives me instant gratification, (I'm not a patient person!) and being able to express myself through my home. I know that in a year or two, this place will be stunning! I love therapy!!! ;)
