I've reflected lately on the feeling of needing relaxation and peace and remembering the things in life that truely make me feel whole. My family, being outside on a beautiful day, and one thing i've always loved: FLOWERS!
I convinced Ben last weekend (when he was home for one day) that we needed to go to Steins and "look". :) Well "looking" turned into getting my heart set on buying some flowers and herbs. I at one time had my entire patio a little oasis with flowers all over it, sure it wasn't cheap but it was one of those feel good things. It was great to go outside or look out my patio and see flowers every day. So I suddenly felt that need to have my flowers back in my life.
Mind you I haven't had a flower garden on my deck for maybe 2-3 years, it's time! :) So we've started with just a few things, one a new flower- its sooooo beautiful- full of pastel peach color. And i've got an herb garden started! Filled with rosemary, chives, basil, peppermint, cilantro, etc. I'm pretty excited about this start. But knowing me this is just the beginning of a beautiful thing. :)
