Where is everybody? Looks like it’s you and me!

Tee hee Mr Voodoo is awesome!

LOL Blooie

Yum! KD

After a big day in the garden, cherry pie and margaritas would be most welcome now.

After getting the last overgrown corner under control, I am now officially in maintain and beautify mode for the garden. No more hard slogs! Just keep the weeds under control nurture the lawns and plants etc. Gotta finish the fish ponds but they are so close and what is left to do is not hard work.

After mowing, edging and doing that corner, I started on the beautify. I have to say, I am so very pleased and love how it looks! Needs a few more potted plants but will do that with some bargains from the markets ……

Got my tea ready, Teila? It’s lovely in your little corner haven. Um, NOW can you relax a little?

 

[ShrekDawg]

Help yourself to the pie!

I dont like margaritas, or alcohol in general, but I'll have a virgin strawberry daiquiri if you've got one!

And that looks awesome Teila!

 

[ShrekDawg]

Also curious why you gotta do all the mowing and everything else?

We actually had a good day today!

FIL and I had a laugh together today over something and we also made a connection kind of. The blue dolphin he purchased many years ago for his now deceased wife [10 years] during her chemotherapy. It was under the house, collecting dust. So, with his permission, after purchasing the blue bird bath, I bought the dolphin out from under the house, cleaned it off and positioned it. I think he liked the gesture and for the first time, seemed interested in something I had done in the garden.

I also find myself much more relaxed today, probably because I was in the garden, which I love. I am starting to think that it is partly due to work. It is a stressful job and during the week, my stress levels would be higher but on the weekend, I am able to cope more with those things that would normally annoy me during the week; if that makes sense.

I do not mind, I love gardening. Also, I am the only one who does like gardening

Teila, I love that dolphin statue - it's so sweet. Glad you could give it a beautiful spot in your gorgeous garden. And the matching bird bath is perfect. Can't wait to see your future guppies in your pond once it's all done too.
