What dreams do you have that are yet to be fulfilled? And which boxes on your bucket list are already ticked?

Vegetable garden...
I posted about the willow border that I bought a few days ago, it arrived and my veggie garden is finally underway, I think I may have waited 18 years to start growing my own veg. My 'to do in life' list has always been pretty mundane!

Have had a little think on your question but came up with nothing. I guess I just take life as it comes and live for the moment rather than the future.
ReplyDeleteReal pleasure is in the simplest things, I wonder how many other people, when they really thought about it, are quite happy with what they have.
DeleteI thought I wanted to grow my own veg till the slugs came , I can't bear them so gave up, it would have been the end of vegetables for me.
ReplyDeleteBefore 30 it was all about travel, now I'm over that and only want to go to France or LA once a year. I just want a quiet cosy life now, good simple food and home comforts.
My worry is rats, apparently they too come with growing veg, so I am deliberately not going to grow anything to suit a rat's appetite! We have loads of slugs already, they come out at night and I often stand on a few when I take the dog's out and it is pitch black! I'm getting used to it, as long as I have remembered to wear slippers.
DeleteIt's funny I think aspirations probably settle down as we get older, but I have never really wanted any 'big ticket' things, even when I was young and the world was my oyster. May be partly because I worked in luxury goods early on and realised that most of it was just hype!
Where I live (very very rural)we throw out all our veg peel and food scraps on and under the bird table where the foxes, squirrels, sheep, badgers, hedgehogs, rats and mice come and graze. By morning it is all gone. We have a couple of cats who occasionally catch a few baby rats but on the whole I don't see them as a problem. They are part of the normal wildlife here. Guess it might be a problem in a built up area though.
DeleteIt's the thatch I worry about, apparently they quite like to move in! I don't mind them just passing, but not so keen on full time lodgers!
