I've always loved wildflowers. Dolly Parton's song called "Wildflowers", has a line that goes like this - ..WILD FLOWERS DON'T CARE WHERE THEY GROW... (I have a link to the song on this blog - so have a listen). I've always thought of myself as a wild flower; I'll put my roots anywhere. This blog is mostly about my "wild" garden, our pond, the birds and insects that visit, it`s about our animals, and our home projects.

Happy Birthday to Me!
Today I celebrate my birthday. As usual, I don’t want presents or celebrations, I want solitude. I often take a road trip to connect with things that inspire me, but life circumstances don’t lend that option this year, and I also have a bad sinus cold. So today, while I don’t have a destination or a plan, I will make time for quiet contemplation, and take time for time itself.
It is cold, very cold and somewhat windy but the sun in out. As I drink my hot lemon with honey and cinnamon I reflect on the fire in the wood stove and how warming it is. There is comfort in warmth; and it is quiet. My road trip will come soon enough, but for now, I will just relax, sip my teas, and look forward to Chris cooking me a lovely meal tonight.
