I’ve got Bumblebee right now sweating profusely as he struggles to get some screws into the wall to put some curtains up for me. I don’t think he’s used to such hard wood. LOL. He’s been working outside on my garden as well here and there, buying and planting flowers, tomatoes, cilantro, chiles, lavender though my garden is already pretty lush. It seem the previous owners of my pleasure palace planted lilacs, lily of the valley, spearmint, roses and loads of other beautiful and fragrant things.
The trees in my yards are so mature and large that they are almost twice the height of my home. They have been here for at least 50 years, I’m sure. Old and wondrous things they are and seeing them outside the window everyday is a sight to behold. I can see hummingbirds and dragonflies buzzing through the branches and Ophelia has fun barking at the rabbits, raccoons and possums that scurry through the yard to torment her. Yet Ballenger Rd. is just right there, it feels like I am miles away from civilization. With the wind I hear the timbre of the numerous wind chimes I have peppered the yard with to drown out the construction on Miller Rd.
I called today to have the water line turned on for the yard since this is such a huge property it’s a separate line from the house and has to be turned off and on according to the changing of the seasons. I have a pool maintenance company coming to set up my pool and jacuzzi next week for the summer and I can hardly wait! I’ll be swimming like a siren in no time.
I’m going to have Jen come over soon to start the haunted mansion damask airbrushing project on the walls, and Bumblebee is going to start working on putting up the shoe shelves for my dressing room.
