I picked up the keys yesterday. The house is in excellent shape according to the inspector but there are a few minor repairs and tweaks I want to make (and I can make them if I want!). Now I embark on Calling All the People!- plumber, electrician, locksmith, contractors.


And because I am an optimist at heart I am hosting makeshift Thanksgiving in my new house for 15 people and growing because the answer to "Can so-and-so come too?" is always yes.
Congrats WFS. I'm happy for you and the kids to finally have a safe nourishing space of your own.

Have a look at the book "The Flower Yard" by Arthur Parkinson for garden inspiration.
