Blog Serenity
We are going to visit the tax man today. Ugh. But before we head out, I need some blog serenity. Today my good place will be secret gardens. In our first home DH and I designed our backyard and painstakingly installed the flagstone ourselves. We had a beautiful arbor which was covered with wisteria. Sitting beneath the arbor you would be surrounded by passion vines, black bamboo, impatiens, hydrangeas, roses, chinese lantern plants, potato vines and fuschias. We also had a whiskey barrel pond complete with a japanese bamboo fountain, lillies and a couple goldfish which surprisingly lived a long time. Yep, that was our secret garden. So today, while at the accountant’s, my head will be

and here
Serenity now, serenity now….
wow, I feel like I need to get outside, pick flowers and have a nice long cup of tea…rather than run around like a mad woman that is planned for the day. Good luck with the tax man!
Oh, I love the secret garden! Love places where you can just get away from the busyness of life for sure.
Oh my. What lovely places. I visit my tax man on Friday and prepared yesterday. It’s all about the Schedule C!
Can I come over and sit awhile? That is a magical place.
I’m going to hang out in your beautiful garden while you’re with the tax man. I hope you don’t mind.
Welcome to SITS. We’re happy to have you.

Hi Jing. I wish these were mine.
So glad to be back here; came back from my little staycation only to be swamped with work. Just started blogging again and visiting; can’t wait to see what everybody’s been doing
SO awesome!!Time to head outdoors!

Found you through MBC and now following your blog!
I am becoming a mother soon, and would love any advice other moms have who have already experienced what I am currently experiencing. I would love to hear from you!

These are beautiful pieces of inspiration! I love outdoor spaces that are set up for romantic interludes and quiet contemplation — Hope you managed to pay enough attention to the accountant!
Very serene, very beautiful, wish I could go sit in one of those gardens (with my laptop and blogs of course) for real. Thanks for sharing.
