It's an amazing thing - my family have come to stay and they are determined to push mother (happily and gratefuly) into a website for the writers' garden.
Having waited since April for the landscapers to turn up to create the bones of the garden, at least documenting the miniscule changes will make it feel like something is actually happening.
I have been told (not for the first time in the past 5 months) that the diggers will be here on Monday to dig holes toward creating a retaining wall. In the meantime, I have purchased three potted pink azaleas that now sit in a planter box outside the laundry.
Each time I go out the door, I will delight at their beauty and, hopefully, not notice the dump that surrounds this beautiful house.
