Today's Creative Outlet

I have succeeded today in filling my inner desire to be creative, while taking care of the home, through gardening. Never before have I really had an interest, but I really got into it and found that it is sort of an art form, and a way of expressing yourself!
Sophie desperately needed to get out of the house, so on my hip we went to the local nursery with a a $50 budget. I chose my little friends primarily based on beauty and balance combining grey and purple leafy plants, succulents, and ornamental grass. Very English garden combined with a touch of Spanish? Who knows, but I love it, and will probably be the only one to appreciate it's beauty! (Cross my fingers that the $70 I ended up spending doesn't die over night!)
Am I on a roll toward sewing again?? I hope so! I need to make a dress for Sophie to get her first JCPenney pictures taken in...... Although tomorrow is a total beach day and the waves are getting good!
