i am not sure if i will ever be getting to live this dream i dream.
but in the meantime, here are some images of inspiration for it.
(i don't mean to be all mysterious, i just don't want to jinx it.)

  1. ok ok that flower arrangement in the fourth photo is amazing! as is the room in the second - amazing! i want a place like that (actually i would be happy even just with the desk + chair). i am also beyond curious as to your dream - but i understand about jinx's -)

  3. I love the look of the garden house in pic # 2.

    Are you about to buy a house? Don't answer that if you think you might jinx it.

    I'm not big on phones of any kind. I really like the idea of no phone at all. But this world is very unkind to those of us without mobiles. I resisted until about 2 years ago and then cracked because nobody could understand how I didn't have one and filling out forms and all kind of formal stuff was almost impossible with a mobile ph no. Weird.

  5. iphone- its ok, but it could be better.
    hear me out, mac zealots
    its big. but then, some of the 'buttons' are ridiculously small.
    And 4 clicks to get to the number pad?- deal-breaker!
    (or 1 and a double click if you tweak it)
    so. its not as good as my macbook (zero complaints)

    I want a phone that is just a phone.
    it would look like a calculator.
    a calculator that talks to me.

  8. thanks for your thoughts and as ever lovely comments. that's a no to the buying a house question - i already have one:) it is a bit different to that, but really don't want to bring on the jinx! hiki, doma are maybe the best thing ever! my old house in kyoto was a machiya with a big doma - such a great way to enter a home...

    and thanks so much for responses re the iphone question...i didn;t end up getting it though! i may live to regret that...i got a simple sony one called cybershot, because hopefully it will take ok photos, like the cybershot camera. that may be very, very naive thinking, however. but at least it was free:)
