A late hello to everyone -

BJ - Beautiful car ! Snazzy ! And you look good too !

Just thinking - when I was a little girl, I never understood why my mom changed into lounging clothes as soon as she got home from work. Now I get it - no bra !

I managed to wake up at 7am. I didn't want to get up, but I sure wanted to get started on the new flowerbed. I ate a piece of toast, and out the door I went.

I managed to dig up a bed about 2 feet wide, with one corner. Not bad, considering I do everything with a trowel. I can't use a shovel - hurts my back. Anyway, my DH brought home a box of plants from one of his co-workers. She sent a beautiful purple bearded iris - just what I wanted ! And some morning glory starts, a mum, a sedum, and a couple ground covers. I'm not much into ground covers except for ajuga, but I stuck them in the ground anyway.

I had a cup of coffee with Norman, and then I went back outside until 11am. That's four hours, which is a long time for me these days. Gone are the days when I worked outside from sun up to sunset.

I did manage to put a couple plants in the ground, though. I know the bed needs to be wider, but at least those plants out of their pots.

I ate lunch, cleaned up the mess I left behind all morning, and here I am. I am going to shower and take my nap. Pav is sound asleep on my bed already.

Have a great Saturday everyone ! I'll catch up with you later.
