GARDEN: Plan, plan, plan, plan AND plan . . .

As I grow, not only in age, but also in my life experience, my marraige and in trusting in others - I realise more and more that I need to listen more and more to my husband.

He reminded me how important it is to plan a portager and to not just jump in and randomly expect to get Rome built in a day!

So I went out and got some tools that I have found very useful in my planning phase.

1. A lever arch file - This I am using to organise all the ideas I have seen in magazines and interesting articles I have found on gardening, growing veggetables, use of herbs, etc. I will share some of the content on this blog as time goes on!

2. A garden notebook - And I just fell inlove with this note book with the vintage feel, the gorgeous butterflies - DON'T DREAM YOUR LIFE, but instead LIVE YOUR DREAM! Which just reminds me that everything and anything you can imagine is possible if you just set your mind to it!!!

I will use this note book to make notes on the plants I plant, their growth progress, layout of the portager scetches, etc, etc, etc!!!!! If I am lucky and some inspiration flows through my veins, I may just write a poem or two.
