OM [one moment] meet up - week 6 - vignette

My week was pretty hectic and while I could write about many "moments," one small one jumped out at me. 

I began sprucing up my garden last weekend.  Around Mother's Day each year, I start my plantings and begin to bring out my summer gear (pots, furniture, etc).

I  love adding a bit of decorative interest to my front porch.  It seems to change every year, but I like to make this area welcoming.  It's probably for me more than anyone else, but it makes me happy.  

Since our front is mostly shaded during the day, I found this hosta and plopped it into the pot.  I plopped my beloved concrete ball in the smaller pot, added a lantern (which I light when I know we are having guests) and one of many shells we've collected over the years.  Voila!  A corner with purpose.

This little corner by our door made me sit down and enjoy the ivy climbing up a trellis that hides our electricity meters.  I added a bench (from our backyard) and now I've found that I sit out front and watch the kids play and the neighbors pass by.   The boys are congregating (a.k.a loitering) here, too, which I actually love.

I took lots of other garden pictures that I'll share next week.  Have a wonderul weekend!!

What was your 'one moment' this week? What took you out of your present moment and made you pause, smile, slow down?


Share in the blog comments here, on your own blog (and link back below) or on my Facebook fan page. If you are on Twitter, I've started a hash tag - #OMmeetup so that we can converse if we'd like. We'd love to hear your moment this week!

How I see spring

photo by me

To answer Tara over at Scoutie Girl, I see spring as hope and new growth.

How do you see spring?

This photo makes me want to aimlessly roam an old European city. Can't you get lost in it?

My week in preview:

Getting used to the new pup. Things are progressing nicely, but I've not been able to accomplish as much as I'd hoped. Trying to take each moment as they come. This is a great lesson in patience for me. Just as many of you mentioned, my heart would open wide and it has [I'm looking much like this]. As imagined, she has attached herself to me and doesn't let me out of her sight. I had to move her big bed into my studio/office so I could get some work done. I've even taken to showering with her in the bathroom just like I used to when the boys were babies.

I'm anxious to make some new things, but another week has gone by. I guess there's always next week.

Have a wonderul weekend!
