Not so Wordless Wednesday. The Queen's office.


Many of us have an office. A space for paperwork, thinking, planning. This is my mom's version of her dream office. It has a comfy chair, a spot for Bagel to play, and her favorite place to be. Her office.

Then there is her veggie garden. Pumpkin and gourds grow behind her chair, tomato's to her right and peppers, and onions too. Those are Marigolds everywhere, the pink dish is her butterfly bath (they like shallow water to sip from) you can't see it but right by Bagel is a wood board that you have to walk over to get to this office (the Queen and Bagel office) these two chairs are right in the middle of the garden. Oh the board goes over a small rock creek my mom made. The house gutters run to it and it waters her garden.

Those blue wine bottles upside down to the left of my mom, are her funky decor. (her neighbors helped her empty them.) Oh and the Queen has hummingbird feeders all over, the are EVERYWHERE! Its really cool if you hold still, they buzz right up to you. Crazy cuz you can't see there wings, since they move so fast! Its like a Minny wingless bird, just floating in front of you. But look fast, because they zip away fast!

My mom's garden is amazing. It's a fun place for her to get away all spring, most of summer it's too hot, so she works early, just maintaining it. Then fall she preps it for winter. As soon as April is here, she is out in her favorite getaway place. Her garden.
