Enjoy your day "M" having company however nice it is can be tiring...omg rhubbard elephant ears..how I'd love some..had 2 bags of cement left in my trunk, drove up and down the streets after work last night on my way home until I saw a yard with rhubbarb..knocked at their door and said please,please may I have 3 rhubbarb leaves..thank goodness they decided to help this old gal..got home and made 3 more..my car said 'thank you'

Because I got home and didn't go in, sit just in and change and out again, I was able to get the entire yard cut, was already cut on Friday but as a neighbor asked if she could bring a group of seniors for tea one day this week to enjoy my gardens thought it needed cutting..

Yesterday morning I stopped into a nursery and bought a pretty shrub with yellow flowers...didn't have any info on the tag just a name tag..Japanese Kerria..bought it, came to the office and looked it up..wow, grows up to 6' tall and 6' wide and lives approx 50 years...not a little shrub so had to rethink where to put it... so had to dig up another another little area..by 9pm Sailor girl was getting impatient..time for bedtime treats..
