just a thought for you...

the unfinished will be there tomorrow..

so what you did today is enough...

that's all you can do...

no more, no less...

blessings...

it must be summer...

some of the pots that were painted the last few days...

columbine...

so tall...

I think we moved this here last year from one of the other beds...

here is a pot I did Sunday...

love the white pots now...

peonies are closer to opening and with the temps now- in the 90s as we speak- they should open soon...

iris need to be dead headed already, but have other things on my mind...

buds are still tight but showing some red here...

the front bed...

may not be room to add very much but would still like to get some lilies in here if we can...

how do you hide the lighter fluid bottle???

I use dianthus...

I won't let them store it in the shed, just too hot in there...

not close to the fire pit either...

I would rather it sat in the neighbor's yard, but that could get a little funky...

been messing with this this morning...

needs more blooms, but waiting on the pots to dry before the painting can begin...

Craig washed out a couple long planter boxes this morning and I think they are going to be so cool here in colors other than hunter green...

ok- celery green... 

this was that blue ocean...

but with a few things going that color and I think a pale green is pretty, so we did this just to change things up a bit...

still have more to plant..

did this pot just a bit ago...

yellow snap dragons and purple petunias...

tucked a few more things in here...

and there you go...

while we were out there...

the egg man came...

yeah. ours delivers...

nice brown, farm fresh eggs with the poop..

I love the color...

and they are good eating, too...

not moving so good today...

stiff and sore...

but that means there's progress...

so off I go for PT...

you all have a good day...

and for those of you still waiting on your bloomers to start partying at your house...

its coming...

and sooner than you think!

tornadoes north of here...

but the sun is shining now...

playing around with the new photo editor...

sepia is one of my favorite things right up there with rust..

time to seal the door this year and add some legs...

shelf brackets coming soon...

then the door can be stood anywhere...

without tipping over...

putting my touch on things here and there...

one spray can at a time...

been too long since I could do that...

have a great night...

the chicken and noodles were yummy..

want to walk in the rain?

did these photos on hubby's laptop with a new program that I am not used to...

I got so bored sitting in here earlier and I so needed to walk, I just grabbed my umbrella and the camera and out I went...

here is the thermometer that I re-did...

that's a base of Jade in Krylon spray paint and then I took the acrylics and went over the numbers with a Q-tip, used a cotton ball for the high lights on the leaves...

sprayed on a sealer this morning and then the storms came...

I still have much to do...

we snagged this at Ninny's on Saturday...

it will go in our mother's garden area...

I think it needs a touch up...

everything looks so much deeper in the rain...

we have a plan for the easter eggs...

if they are still there for Halloween, we are spraying them orange and black...

so much rain today...

dianthus soaking wet...

that last bloom is hanging on...

rose of sharon leaves...

hiding places...

this is about to bloom!

it is the sweetest smelling this ever!

columbine with their heads hanging low...

and finally...

a self portrait...

of a crazy lady walking in the rain and taking photos...

a guy went by in a truck while I was out there...

I am sure he has this pegged at the nut house now...

good thing this is a dead end and it was only one wayward vehicle...

but he was on his cell phone and I could be famous before nightfall...

just got the chicken out of the oven...

gona debone it and have chicken and noodles for supper tonight...

mashed potatoes and a veggie and we should be good to go...

its hot in here!

I think we are going to have to open a window or 2..

talked to my bestie this afternoon  on the phone...

she is working through her life and I know she has so much to figure out right now...

but I am so proud at how far she has come..

she is amazing and she doesn't even know it...

she'll find out...

well, that's all from here...

gotta run and get some more done...

later, girls...

a most beautiful thought...

just love this one...

we have thunderstorms right now, so working off of hubby's laptop(unplugged of course)...

the rain is coming down outside...

got up to a very foggy morning, but it finally lifted...

 we really need the rain...

its been a rather dry spring until now...

so have a good day...

with good thoughts...
