RESTFUL SUNDAY. Take a deep breath and be amazed at the peace. Tis a gorgeous SPRING DAY with temps in the 60s, blue skies and no wind.
Traveled to Manhattan to WALMARTS to get some photograph paper to where I can finish printing off photos for Lil Miss's High School Graduation Party in two weeks. Walmart had the photo paper and it isn't cheap. I figure I will print off a few more pics and call it done for now.
Later I will make prints of my grandchildren in action. Having a printer at HOME sure has come in handy. Making copies of my children and grands will be an ongoing project. Kind of like making a quilt. Takes time and effort. Iy'll be awesome to have this under my belt.
I want to make copies of my Husband and me and make an album. SO perhaps I'll start there.
When at Walmarts, we looked at their plants for sale and was reminded that I have some plants waiting at HOME to be planted. Today's the day for gardening. Been thinking that the small plot where we have white Irises should be moved so I have a place for a small garden. In July when it's time to plant Irises, we will relocate them to a new bed beside the garage. The small area under the Kitchen window will be prepped for a FALL garden. For now, we will fill large containers with miniature cucs, tomatoes, and peppers like we did last year. Making plans and need to work with Momma Nature and Hubby.
We drove to a Hardware Store where I had a coupon for buy two get one free herbs. Picked some LAVENDER plants. They do smell good. Then drove to a vacuum cleaner for cars. When Hubby suggest we clean the car, my heart sings as this is not his cup of tea. 🫖
AT HOME. He did relocate some purple phlox to the front yard at the base of a tree and some miniature Star of Bethlehem. Hope they survive and thrive. Hubby is planning on cleaning the curb out front of our house later today.
Looking at our Peony plant to the side of the house takes my breath away in a good way. Tis gorgeous this year as the Lilac Bush was. Good year for these. I'd like to have a couple more Peony plants which can be planted in the FALL. The plant I have is pale pink in color, so perhaps I'll plant pink and scarlet red. Up in the air. This week, maybe the trimming of the Lilac Bush can take place. There's a small tree that is too close to the Parlor window that needs cut down. We have some Siberian Irises that popped up this year like magic. These plants have been present for a while that laid dormant. What a treat and blessing for them to pop up.
I'm dreaming of what to plant and arrange on our small property. Really is an art form.
Front porch urns will have Coleus on both sides of the sidewalk. The Kimberly Fern will go in the urn on the steps. Then I have some baby Geraniums that will go in a container on the porch. I have some Geraniums inside that still are inside as they wintered in the Kitchen. I'd like to keep them growing as long as possible. Waiting until I know it won't frost in May.
Tonight I will continue printing pictures from the computer and watching some television. After the photos are taken care of I have to create two EASTER WREATHS. haha and grins as I did not get it done for EASTER 2025 so I guess I will be a year ahead this time.
Sunday means a LARGE SALAD for supper. 🥬 We've done well on eating salads this past week and now we start another week of more salads. Watching the carbs as we work on lowering blood pressure, cholesterol and A1c.
Looking over the calendar for this week. Business meeting between Hubby and me. Finish copying photos. Storage Unit payment due. Pay the auto bill. Had to have help repairing the Cadi. Gosh things cost so much any more it hurts. A dental appointment for a cracked tooth with money in hand as they want paid upfront. Hubby's haircut and a track meet. Wreaths finished. Table cleared off and of course laundry. Another visit to the KSU Gardens to look at the gorgeous Irises. Praise the LORD, it will be a blessed week.
AS we drove around town, so many people are outside tending to their yards and soaking up some sunshine. It's really a great day for this.
It's a good day for being a good day. Counting my blessings helps.
