viola...

something to make you smile...
to help  you have sweet dreams...
to plan ahead...
just because...
you're special to me...

surprise!

got a message last night from my buddy who does the plants on the highway...
she said my flowers were in...
so I got these, too...
2 packs of tomatoes and I went with beef master...
1 pack of green peppers...
that will be more than enough for us...
look at the vinca...
no white center...
so cool...
and then there is a pink/purple rose moss...
I am thinking I will need more of that...
a pink pink impatient...
and I grabbed a pack of violets...
look at the intense color...
my pink begonias were a little too red for me...
so I traded for white this year...
I stick these little guys in everywhere...
so now that my whites will be these...
I'm rethinking my design here...
I need snap dragons and marigolds and salvia if I can find the blue...
but for now, they are safe in the cold frames...
until it dries up and the danger of frost is past...
and most of them are going in here...
took a photo while I was there of some of the bloomers they got in...
there's a salmon pink petunia, but I'm holding out for the wave ones...
clematis...
I hope no one takes it out again this year...
would really love to see it grow up...
so that's my big surprise...
bedding plants and veggies!
I brought the little violets in with me...
so they can keep me smiling until we get to planting...
have a fun day...
even if it is raining again...

the rest of yesterday...

boy, time sure gets away from me anymore...
but I am not complaining about it for one minute...
keeping busy and getting to do things myself...
is so much better than sitting here at the computer waiting for another day to pass...
trying not do something that would make things worse or set me back...
and I am not on here very much at all it seems...
between moving and thunderstorms and DH and his fantasy baseball league...
I am not getting a lot of computer time...
but I am sure not complaining!
not one bit!
I love being outside or washing dishes...
I have even vaccumed!
it hurt a little bit...
but I'm not complaining!
I AM BETTER!
not cured...
but having good days...
really good days...
I have been so blessed...
walked a little farther tonight...
maybe a full block now...
thanks for hanging in there with me!
your encouragement helps so much!
I have a surprise for you...
you are going to love it!
