...Mary Chapin Carpenter...what's not to love? <br /><br />Great to hear that your plants<br />survived the move. I have trouble with houseplants anyway, so keeping them alive during a move would be some trick for me. <br /><br />Your chair in the sun room looks so incredibly cozy, and the little pillow says it all: "Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, I've become my Mother After All". <br />Bet there's a back story there!! : )Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03383121960933719236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-10843241890562103302010-08-23T12:56:27.880-04:002010-08-23T12:56:27.880-04:00We have been here 2 months+ and we still have a 2 ...We have been here 2 months+ and we still have a 2 car garage that is full of boxes. It has really been too hot to work in the middle of the day in the garage so we wait until evening and go about it slowly.<br /><br />I am so glad to see your "wee hoose" taking shape.Muthah+https://www.blogger.com/profile/10589837671378205837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-56102769892958425512010-08-22T22:58:19.887-04:002010-08-22T22:58:19.887-04:00Thanks, Caminante, for the encouragement.

I'll feed her tomorrow, but I'm just a wee bit nervous about leaving her alone.

When I left Northfield almost two years ago, Anne convinced me to leave it behind but I so missed it that last year, I rescued it from the rectory and now it is thriving in the west-facing room of the house. It is at least seven feet tall now.Caminantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16610142955176992982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-26273971639999226392010-08-22T22:48:26.379-04:002010-08-22T22:48:26.379-04:00Love, love, LOVE Mary Chapin Carpenter.

It went from a 2ft supermarket plant to a 6 foot potted tree. They get fussed when they move, so just pay attention, don't over or underwater, and give it a little food. It will adapt just fine!<br /><br />Glad ou are settling in. <br /><br />Your title made me think of this:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6aBBf3ZYrgIThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09605163506396013904noreply@blogger.com
