why I should have taken a nap this afternoon...

before...
after...
before...
during...
after...
left overs...
the chair and pot went out front...
it was on top of the potting table...
left overs went here...
hides all the yucky guy stuff...
after...
pink and blue...
cleaner...
the rain last night washed all the yuck off of the roof and trees and I think it all landed on the potting table...
cleaner...
hotter days are coming and these guys can do the heat...
feels new...
and turned the wood box on its side...
there are cubbies left for some cool stuff...
put this on the deck under the shade of the tree...
moved these over here...
and this is all I left on the table...
it was just getting too busy here and the view from the road and sidewalk just wasn't gettin' it...
and I did some more on it after supper in the dark...
not sure if I'm going to like what I did in the daylight...
have a few more projects to finish around here...
I would rather be outside than inside any day...
and I'm doing just what has to be done on the inside so we can play outside...
because those dog days of summer are coming...
and it will be too icky to be out there long...
and then the inside will get the attention it deserves...
until then...
it's chaos...
can't have anyone over syndrome...
bwahahahaha!
anyone shows up here might just end up pulling weeds while we visit!

another day in the yard...

well, things started out like this this morning...
we had thunderstorms through the night...
and almost 3 inches of rain...
cone flowers are opening now...
and we got DH's new coleus transplanted yesterday...
it's called Kong Mosaic...
they are his favorite plant ever...
bushes are blooming and smelling so sweet...
clematis has grown to the top of the trellis and heading back down again...
it hasn't bloomed and probably won't...
blooms on the tomatoes...
so it won't be long before I can start putting some in the freezer for chili this winter...
there is nothing better than home grown tomatoes...
I have noticed in a couple of my beds that the flowers are not as bright this year, so I need to add some acid this fall to the beds...
the sun came out while we were having lunch...
we went back out and tore into the deck area and moved things around so much!
I am working on before and after shots...
you are going to love it!
have a great afternoon!

Love is...

the weekends just go by too fast...
because we are together, having fun...
shopping, eating, working on the yard...
even the housework is easier when we all work together...
and here it is Monday...
already...
it just goes by too fast...
have a fun day and visit Marydon!
