Plant by Plant

As ususal I go overboard when I go plant shopping for the yard. I have big ambitions to plant the whole yard full of flowers. Yeah, right! But my attention span is short sometimes and I can only manage planting a few at a time. Well, I bought the load of flowers a couple of weeks ago and finally got them all planted today. Some have gone in the ground and some are in pots. I love the look of newly planted flowers. Good thing too as I am going out of town again with my job for 3 days. Next weekend our friends Lynn & Judy are coming into town and I would be just too busy again to plant anymore. The weather being too hot already isn't good for planting flowers -they get so stressed out in the heat. But planting early in the am benefits me and them as it is cooler.

156th on the list

Today I went to the library to pick up the latest Debbie Macomber novel, but ended up being 156th on the waiting list for the book "Twenty Wishes". Oh well, I got several other mystery books while waiting.

A summer slacker

I am such a slacker in writing compared to some of my friends. If only posts could be as easy as thinking them. Soon though. I'll be back on track. Thanks for keeping up with me.

Love of Spring

Things to love abt Spring:

One day it's hot, one day it's cold
One day it's raining, one day it bold
One day the flowers are blooming
One day the grass needs grooming
One day there is silence in the yard
One day there is a symphony by song birds

Workin the dirt

Today I planted 4 flats of annuals and 1 flat of perennials. I love feeling the dirt on my hands as I work it. They get so dried out thou. I don't like wearing gloves as I can't feel the dirt that way. The newest addition to the flower collection are geraniums. I've never tried any so thought I'd give it a go this year.

Starbucks goes to Church

Some people really enjoy a mug of drink every now and then. Some have to have theirs always at HAND. This is taking it a bit far but I got a chuckle out of it anyway. Starbucks is now going to church!
