UGH! Dentist! UGH! LOL I have to do that on Friday. I feel Susie's pain. :-)

Our back yard looks different too. DH cut down the mimosa tree that was dying off. I am having him leave the stump about 2 1/2 feet tall to use to put potted plants on. We are putting round up on it, then I'm going to put Thompson's water seal on it. The inside of the tree is beautiful. It had 3 trunks that had grown together. One of the 3 had already been cut back when we bought the house, and the other 2 were looking really bad. I hated to see it go as the hummers, black swallowtail and pipevine butterflies all liked it. I have another one in the pasture not far from the back yard. There are a couple volunteers on the outside of the privacy fence out back too, so there will still be something here for them.

My dahtzu moonflower has started blooming. I love these. My mom had them when I was a little girl and they always smelled so good. Also have lilies Robina, Conca d'or and Stargazer blooming.
