I'm currently remodeling my first home which started the day I moved in over 3 yrs ago. At this point I haven't seen my belongings in so long, I don't even know what I own anymore. Just finishing up my 3rd summer in my garden I have no regrets for taking the time away from living like a normal person. My only regret is that I wish I would have taken before pictures! HUGE lumber pile by the shed...rotting picket fence encaging what was once a vegetable garden turning to nothing but weeds! The perimeter of my yard was nothing by cottage style perennials which is great if your not living in a tightly urban city lot! I wanted privacy! Which lead me into researching lots of trees, shrubs & conifers. I have become obsessed! I like odd growing, unusual, minimalistic landscapes.
