10 minutes on the deck.

The weather has been the pits- feels like November in July these days.  We saw a few rays of sun from the office window, so Chadwick and I took a ten minute break from computer madness to relax on the deck.  The succulents are exploding (I’m sure they’ve all quadrupled in size since we planted them late April).  The grasses are all feathery and there is a lot of flowering on the go.  Not sure I love all the flowery bits- (I love succulents for their structural design) but I have to say, we felt like we were in paradise for those 10 minutes.  So did the dogs.  Our little space.  I want nothing more in life when I’m here.  Pure contentment in the moment.

Our new black-stained herb planters were made by the wonderful John in Chilliwack.  Email me if you want his info.- he’s really lovely (thanks for the tip, Reine).

I hope you get a chance to get outside during the little light-filled moments that shine around you. xo c
