    Unexpected plans

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words.  This picture speaks volumes.  And I’m tired.  Too tired to get into it now. It’s pretty self-explanatory.  It sucked.  Still sucks as a matter of fact.  Off to eat supper (yes at 20 to 12am) and then bed. I’m out.

    Tequila

    This picture says it all.  It’s 34°C out. We’ve been running errands/working (John) all day and we are now just killing time until we go over to our friends house for a Brazilian dinner. Mmmm! But until then I’m taste-testing. Now let me go enjoy!

    And the green grass grew all around, all around

    The green grass grew all around! So it’s been just about 3 weeks since our back breaking labour of laying topsoil and sod.  And the grass has taken off.  It has a mind of it’s own!  It could have….should have…been cut last weekend but John wanted to wait so here we are. It’s ridiculously long. But the length helps keep in the moisture which is a necessity since it hardly ever rains here.  It’ll help keep our water bill down. I’m afraid to get the water bill for last month….ack! But it paid off and our lawn flourishes.  It’s a beautiful deep green and growing like a weed.  J mowed…

    Funny how things change

    You know what!?  I never used to care for geraniums. I don’t know why. Just didn’t.  I always thought of them as an “old lady” flower.  Probably since that was one of the main staples in my Gram’s gardens and pots. But since starting my own garden I’ve learned there is more to Geraniums than just the standard white and red and bright pink. This one if my favourite. I don’t remember what the name of this one is but it’s white (duh!) with dark pink streaks.  It’s great. It’s my favourite. And of course when I went back to get 1 more they had none.  So I had to…
