We got about an inch-and-a-half of rain last night (well it really all came down about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon). The girls were all wet when I put them to bed last night, and we got a little more than a trace of rain throughout the day today. I was really happy to see we have three morning glories blooming out around the glory trellis. There are lots of things in life that I am infatuated with, and morning glories are one of them. There is also Jody, the girl dog, Barney the Cat, the girls, my car, four o'clocks (how much time do you have? Here is a photo of one of the glories, all three of them that are blooming are this hot pink color.
We took a flower bed out around the garage side of the front porch last year, nothing much seemed to grow there. We have a lovely stand of four o'clocks coming up where the bed used to be, where there is now an extension of the crushed granite path. Crazy. When you water and care for them, they will not grow, when you cover them up with granite, they thrive.
I did get a few things done around the house today, including a nap or two. There are (were) some heavy limbs hanging over the driveway that I trimmed back. I drove the truck out and stood in the bed of the truck to trim them, I thought that was a better idea than to try to stand up on a ladder to do. It worked out perfectly.
It is supposed to rain some more tomorrow, so we shall see what gets accomplished. Might just be a really good day for napping!
Deeds, Actions, Changes, GLORIES, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
