I have been busy all day. I went to a local nursery place and bought 2 perennial baby breath plants. DD has been wanting one, so I got it for her birthday which is in 2 days and I got one for me. The weather is just something else. Really nice and then really windy and lots of nice rain, but...

Having my coffee. It rained last night. I walked around looking at things and looking for flowers coming up that I planted. It will be a problem because I am not a flower expert and hard to tell flowers at first from weeds. I have so many in the greenhouse coming up. I have cosmos, bee balm...

I had my coffee and did some weeding. I also started more flower seeds and watered everything. I been waiting for rain and finally watered the garden and flowers and still no rain. very breezy out and still 40s at night. I have most everything planted except squash and cucumbers. I started some...

I had half a cup of coffee and DD came early to pick up some fabric I had for her and to sit in the car with the kids so she could run into Ace and get some seeds. lol I planted some flowers yesterday and did some weeding and pretty dry after I rain even. I have a plant growing next to a...

Having coffee on a chilly and foggy morning. I went to the Farmer's Market with DD and the girls Saturday. It was chilly and I saw a lot of plants drooping. We bought a few things and then it started raining. We had a lot of rain Sunday and it might be around 60 today.

I will show DD and I guess see if it gets flowers like that. Thank you!

I am still drinking coffee and recovering from yesterday. I went with her to get that bush that I am asking what kind on the other board. We went to Costco for groceries. Then she had several other stores to go to and I stayed in the car with kids because she was only going to go in and get...

Hard to even imagine too much water. I am hoping it does rain today. IF it does it will not be much. The wind has been blowing and a lot of dust. Summer rain is what I miss most. Idaho just does not have the thunder and lightening with huge rainfall, but also does not have huge funnel...

DD went to get a free bush and the lady does not know the name, but said it gets pink flowers.

I had my coffee. DD is coming soon to get me and I help her with errands and kids. She picked up some peppers and flowers I had for her yesterday and I went with her and she bought Marigold flowers, strawberry plants and a pumpkin plant. She also bought an old wooden ladder from somebody to...

I was born in southern Oklahoma and lived there until I was 12 years old. We moved to Colorado and we lived around the 5000 feet level for 4 years. I was pretty active in Oklahoma and I sure was not the slowest runner, but in school running around the track in Colorado, I was always about...

I only drink 1 cup of coffee now in the morning. DD and i are trying out different teas to drink later in the day. I have been busy working in the garden. I put some lettuce in and some shallot and onion sets. I planted some sunflower seeds. My tomatoes and peppers and a few other things are...

I have been getting up an hour earlier now because DS has to go to work earlier. They are getting overtime and working 9 hours. We are trying to get to bed earlier, but we are just not early to bed people, but we are better than we were. I am getting nothing done with helping DD watch kids...

I looked up some past dates and found where i had started in April before. Thank you.

I told DD that it took years of seed planting to develop her lol. When she was a teenager, she had no interest in gardening. She said she did not like perennial flowers. No interest in canning or making sauerkraut. I used to have to force my kids to take vitamins. I am kind of a conspiracy...
