Torn up...

horizon.. how I adore a horizon…

but looking on the foreground..

it's a bit..

torn up

a bit.. disheveled .

we've got some cleaning up to do..

don't you think?

Mr.T has come with what is called

a back hoe

I think of it as a digger..

but I speak two year old..

oh wait..

now Little Man knows what it is now too..

oh well

it's like a really COOL tool

and it will help CLEAN up this messy farm!

now take a moment to look at my lovely garden

because it's next in line to be TORN apart…

see….

there are these really awful jagged rocks

and there are NO paths..

so trying to get to something

or prune

or do ANY sort of gardening

means gashes in my shins

falling on my face

clothing torn

and oodles of bruises

so take a look..

things will be changing!

on the left of this shot

you will notice plants and weeds along the house..

well… 

they are all going!

I want it free of plant life..

Rather mice and what not have too much potential there.. 

I can't SEE when they've done something, because it's all

a jungle!

I do plan on adding pea gravel or something..

and then

some plant containers!  

I get to be seasonal then.. and it will be 

clean

and easier to manage!

the swimming pool for ducks is temporary..

we plan on putting in a wee pond in the garden..

getting a new door for the garage..

it will..

be a LOT of work

but it should

look amazing when we finish..

till then…

things look

torn up..

assessing the landscape…

planning

thinking

talking it out

some trees are getting pulled down

and we are chipping branches..

the mulch is great for gardening

and for my birdies pen

lots done but

can ya tell yet?

it'll look super!

can you IMAGINE it?

and just look at all the nice firewood I have..

time thankfully will age it nicely..

and I don't have to do anything

but have it stacked

~phew

perhaps it's good that I am not feeling well..

because I would probably be tearing apart

SOMETHING

inside the farmhouse

and having the inside and the outside of the house

torn up

would not be a healthy

thing..

this way..

there IS peace somewhere!

ahhh..

the adventure!
