Now I'm finally on my way home and it's 5:30 - decide to go to Norms Gallery Nursery..omg flowers and arrangments are beautiful, but hanging baskets no more spectacular than what I bought at the wholesalers this morning were $59.99 OMG that a lot of money...but I did purchase 2 white astilbe's and a lily and a tray of 12 pots with misc. flowers to make a planter..love the potatoe vine, both light green and maroon, so tomorrow I'll make one up to hang in the birdfeeder stand so now I'm almost home and remember, my mother's mother - her grave is in Midland so back I go to put flowers on her grave..I could not believe it, there was so much damage, it's a beautiful old cemetary near the lake and it was vandalized either that or much damage because of the winter, tombstones were facing the wrong way, stone tops broken (cross) off ancient stones, pushed down stones etc. - brought tears to my eyes...my grandmother whom I'm named after, Bessie Marie was born in 1913 and died in 1947 - couple of months before I was born..so 34 - 2 kids married and 2 at home..that was so very young...

Then I also remembered that I had to go to Home Depot to take photo of a waterfeature that my mom said she liked..going to e-mail her the picture and if she likes it, I'll pick it up in the early morning tomorrow as it's the last one left..made of resin to look like cement...

Sounds as though many of you enjoyed your day, rain or not, either in the garden or shopping in the garden.. that reminds me..at Norms they had a beautiful resin set...lordy I want it...hope the boys forget about my shrubs and decide to take me out to choose something..lol know where I'll be and what I'll be picking up...

Sooo guess who is tuckered out..think I'll take my bath and put my feet up..lol..
