This is it



I'm going to spend my money and time on this.
I bought her house.
The one my Grandpa built with his own hands.
The one she learnt to love.
I bought the window to look at the invisible through it.
Or the garden.
I'm going to plant my own flowers between hers.

This summer I will sit in the kitchen again
and tell some stories to my kids.

[I still hope you bought a hairnet as well.]

What a beautiful garden. It looks quite magical and enchanting. Another lovely post Taiga:)

Dave; I promise to buy a hairnet in May 2032.

Mimi B; Thanks. I have been taken care of the garden and I think it's quite wonderful too :)
Actually I'm going there today, for a weekend, so you'll have to wait a bit for a new post...

Oh yes, the most important thing.
What this means is that I will be there with the cubs all June and July.
I will have a paintbrush, a hammer, a shovel, but no Internet connection.

[hyperventilating slightly]

So, there will be no new posts during the two months.
I might be lurking your blogs about twice a month, when I'll pop back to Helsinki for a short moment.

I will be back. Honest :)

We will miss you greatly. But I'm sure being in the garden, without the internet, will be a blessing.

I did avoid watching the Eurovision song contest last night, but I gather from this morning's news that Finland won it. Obviously you live in a hip, groovy place.

Spring fever bites another willing victim. Have fun in the bushes.

Taiga the Fox said...

I'm back from the groovy bushes :)

IP; excellent work done. Kiitos. Just two small ones: Onnea and puolestasi. Puolastasi translates as "for your Poland" :)
You met a Finnish biker?

Taiga the Fox said...

Thanks, IP, your comment was so funny I spilled my coffee all over the the desk. I know one biker too, but he is very skinny and has a long blonde beard :)

Oh, and your sentences were very well written, I'm really impressed, so don't be sorry at all :)
