The early evening was wonderful yesterday, it became so calm after some crazy wind for most of the day... I went out cleaned up the leaves as I often do... Because when I don't they pile up to much and it seems harder to take care of... The sky was amazingly lovely... And it was calm as could be... I wanted to get my seeds in but thought maybe not I'm just getting over being sick so better not... This weather has stopped me from getting things that I normally have done long ago done... Silly weather indeed...
I did the day before get this little spot of dirt turned over, my goodness it's takes forever these days to get something done, more so because of my bad back... Otherwise I don't believe it would be so hard... Here I decided to put my lettuce, carrots, green onions, things like that...
I did also manage to get two tomatoes in, one is a purple variety... I can not wait to see them...
My Gladiolus are coming up, but I'm sad because I forgot to put back my Purple ones and they dried up for some reason... Never had that happen before...
Big white clouds in the evening....
The Garden so clean and peaceful, I just love it... My heart is always in the Garden...
Yep, those are rain clouds forming.... Darn...
The little strawberry patch, they are already making strawberries... My grandson Isaiah loves strawberries so when he saw them his face lit up, but I told them they are not ready yet... He knows they are red.. So he said ok grandma, he loves the Garden too...
The back part of the Garden where the Lemon tree is... I so wish there was grass... It would be so nice...
One of my other roses bloomed... It has another bud on it getting ready to open... I just had to pick one and bring it in... Since we are having ugly weather that way I can enjoy it for a while instead to the wind blowing it away...
Here is my latest creation in crocheting...
A little bird, I made it by watching a youtube video, the woman used these little special rubber bands to make a toy, so I caculated it and crocheted it with yarn... I'm so happy he came out pretty well with a few minner missed stitches I think... It was hard to say because she used the bands... i'm happy with the results...
This is where she will sit on a wreath I have made...
Have a most glorious day today... With much love Janice...
Your crocheted bird is adorable, Janice! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteI just love the crocheted bird and wreath. You are so talented. Your garden looks so lovely too. I haven't tried growing roses yet but I did put in a hydrangea cutting a friend gave me. I have tried growing hydrangea in the past and was not successful. Will let you know how this one fares.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly have a beautiful garden. Love the wreath and the addition of the bird was a real delight. Take care.
ReplyDeleteYour crocheted bird is stunning, very adorable. Your very talented, my sweet and romantic friend. Your garden is fairy as usual

Love your sweet garden spots. When grass won't grow give up and make a stone or mulch path. No point in going to war with Mother Nature, because you lose everytime...LOL.
ReplyDeleteGreat start, im jealous cause we had frost last night...and I had to cover the few plants I had put out.
