Thank you MK, it wornt be long you can be putting picture of snow up. I sure wish I had the money to go south for the wlnter, no thanks to my wife. Take care, stay safe. Hugs.
Hi there. Its a beautiful sunny afternoon here. Haven't seen the sun in several days. Its supposed to be in the 70's by the weekend here. That sounds so nice. I hope you are having a good afternoon my friend. I have all my housework done for the day and decided to send notes on here. Have a good rest of your day my friend and take care. Cheryl
Now this is NO joke! I have about 16 clocks that have to be changed forward and backward every year. That doesn't count the iPhones, iPads, iWatches, and Apple computers that change automatically.
Today I thought I would share pictures of our yard. As I sit in the computer room, the window to the left of the front door, I keep hearing the squirrels jump on the roof from the tree farther left but not in picture and run across the roof. This picture was taken right after our first 1/2" of rain. We had at least 1-1/2" over 2 days and today there is no water standing in this flower bed.
This picture is facing NNE across our backyard. You can see the patio, table and rocking chairs which is one of my favorite places in the world. In the center of the picture is where the tree fell down that we had to cut up & get rid of earlier this year. On the right is a flower bed we made in the middle of the yard.
In this WNW facing picture, you can see the cement we poured many years ago and the PVC frame with a lattice top to protect plants from burning up in the direct hot sun of Texas summers. Soon we will get out our sheet of plastic that goes behind the plants and covers them all. All the hanging baskets will go under there too. There are flood lights that we turn on in freezing weather to help keep plants warm. Yes, I have a few BIG plants in BIG pots and I had already moved 3 of them under the carport.
In this SW view, you see Hubby's shop (the carport is attached to the front of it, out of view to the right). You also see one flower bed alongside the shop and another flower bed we made in the middle of the yard. Unseen behind the chines to the right is a small flower bed with 4 rose bushes in it. The summer breeze blows the rose scent across the patio.
This angle shows the fence and all the things hanging on it as well as the wind spinners in the middle of the yard flower bed. There is another flower bed on the left that has hostas, ornamental pink grasses, flowers and one large Yellow Rose bush that in summer is FULL of roses.
Of course, I can't leave without the beautiful blooming Angel Trumpet that came from Cricket. I hope you enjoyed your tour and that you know if you are ever in the Dallas area, you are welcome at our home!
Getting cooler here -- brought my jade and other plant inside. Must be cold your way. Leaving in the Am and will be back Sun.. Take care and talk to you soon. Hugs, Wendy
I hope the middle of the week is good to you it is a cold rain now then it is going to get really cold this weekend will be inside and watch the Braves World Series parade on tv
Hi there. Its been a cold and cloudy day here today. And we have a chance for a hard freeze tonight. At least this weekend will be in the 70's. I don't care for the cold weather and no sunshine. Hope your day has been good my friend. Take care. Cheryl
Morning MK, weather is warming up. Going from 28 at night one day to 60 at daylight hours 2 or 3 days later. Thats Michigan. Take care, stay safe. Hugs.
Snow has fallen and more to come next week so I just had to get one of the winter puzzles out to relax my being. Puzzles have always been a calming effect on me since my childhood days. Now that was just the other day. Ha Ha My how the years go by enjoying the moments what ever it will give you.
I am having a nice spot of New England Coffee called Caramel Pumpkin at the moment while chit chatting abit with you. May your day be ever so nice to you as you do your daily duties. Snow flake come down anytime ,if you please. Smilies Gloria
Let the weekend begin!
