the wilderness

as much as i like living close to nature...
....... in the past week we have killed a brown snake in our back yard
....we have a swarm of bees that has taken up residence on our side fence..just hanging there buzzing away happily...
sindri saved a baby rabbit from the mouth of our cat.. it was loved and snuggled for a day until it died that night , resulting in three devastated children...
... and tonight i just killed a red back spider on our back verandah.
giving up this information may mean my friends who read my blog wont want to come visit me anymore. its ok. i understand. i wouldnt visit me either.
and right now...the busy, smelly, at times scary city ..is looking much more attractive.
the thing that saves me is my beauuutiful garden.
i wouldnt want to live in a place without my garden.

p.s whilst visiting shula i found this place i now like to visit. Anna Torma makes beautiful embroideries.. i like...

Hi Manda! That sure is a lot of wilderness...but having a garden must make it worthwhile. That's one of the things I miss now that I live in the city.
