after 2 long days of work...

it was a good weekend...

we got to work on the side yard where the flooding had set us back...

got the little red wagon last week on an online rummage site...

painted this all black and got the extra pots scrubbed up...

this is where the huge azalea was...

DH dug the dead plant up and we are thinking a hydrangea in here when we find one...

we are pretty sure that's all we lost over here!

some things are delayed and just not bloom this year...

the rose of Sharon only has a few blooms on it this year, but it made it!

5 weeks + of standing water, so we are lucky to have anything left here...

grateful we are not having to start completely over!

there is still much to do...

and so many weeds!

tons of broadleaf!

but we picked one section and pretty much, stuck to it...

we got the holes filled and flattened as much as I could do with the riding lawn mower...

a ton of weeds and debris cleaned from the flower beds...

and sewed grass seed...

I bought this chair, too...

it was orange and painted it black...

got some really hot and humid days coming up this week...

watering will be t he priority...

and staying in as much as possible...

got some touch up painting done, too...

there is always more to do...

:)

we are both sore, but still kicking...

we didn't even get to the old garden area...

but there are tiny green beans on the potted plants...

and the tomatoes are growing...

a hard rain knocked off all the blooms they had on them...

gearing up for Craig's vacation to Canada...

Steve has to take him to Indy Wednesday morning early...

they leave here at 3am...

DH took Wed- Fri off...

I am sure we will be inside most of it...

:)

we can get caught up on the inside stuff and our naps!
