Can I just say that right now I am in Project Heaven?
I work best and am happiest when I can work like a butterfly. And sting like a bee. (Sorry, I couldn’t help myself. Or was it ‘move like a butterfly, and sting like a bee?’) My apologies if you aren’t old enough to remember Mohammed Ali. But I digress.
I am happiest when I am juggling multiple projects and can flit from one to the other, whether it be work or play or work at home.
Anyway, the flowerbed is done. *Happy Dance!*
I did not enjoy it.
But doesn’t it look nice?
I have one blue fescue plant that is struggling; it’s a sun-loving plant that was living in the shade at the store. And of COURSE there was no other blue fescue in town, so I’m hoping it will come out of it.
I typically go with a color palette of pinks, purples, and white, and a variety of textures in my landscaping. Easy on the ornaments. I’m liking the look. Just in case you forgot what it looked like before, here is the ‘before’ shot.
The perfectionist in me crept in once. I realized I there were a couple of plants that I should have moved a couple of inches a different way.
Two inches.
Dig up a plant on a hot day and move it two inches? N.O.
I got over it.
Then I really got over my perfectionism when I sent two men to the store to pick up pea pebbles for me. Graciously, they complied. And brought home two different colors of pea pebbles. (!) Fortunately, it takes a lot of pea pebbles.
After I was done, I realized it didn’t match the pea pebbles in the other bed.
Who knew there were so many colors of pea pebbles?
I didn’t need it to be perfect, I just needed it to be done. Chances are, you would have never noticed it didn’t match the other bed.
Now I’ve made you want to look. 😉
Time to celebrate! 😀
