Your all planting already...I'm so jealous. Although I've pulled a few weeds today.

Hmm, maybe I can make a salad with the leaves from the one lone dandelion growing against the house 2 months left here yet before I can plant outside.

I'll drink to that. ((Laughing with dodge)) Today Rod put my plastic edging on each side of the bed that I will have my Black oil sunflowers in. Then I planted my mammoth sunflower seeds (thanks again Sheri) and my Black oil sunflower seeds.

i understand a little. My 2 sis's had the problem, but they had weight problems.
Glad you can use it ..
b Thanks Barb. see, with all of this mesh in my abdomen,and the bad back on top of it, bending over or stooping is not a really big problem--getting back up is however a huge issue. with this kneeling bench I have something to push myself up with.

Soon, if I don't get out as the sun lightens the sky, I won't. Because it gets hot here. Today I spread more planting mix. That is 24 bags, 3 cu ft each, I used up the hill. Drove a couple of t-posts and planted some shrubbery. The outdoor bathroom is getting more and more close to 'finished'. Pics will be shared when it is.

I had wanted to p ut this is Blooming fine, but since this is where we were talking about this at, I thought to put this here. Sheri--Barb-Thorny. Below is 1 "hill" of Black Oil sunflower seeds that are coming up. None others visable yet. About Sheri's mammoth sunflower seeds, one is up but "something" bit a few bites out of it, so I could not make myself pake a photo--- More updates coming later I promise.

OK totally unrelated to the above post is what I really did today. I laid down 4, 1-foot pavers to form a base, then set down my half barrel on top of it, washed it out & partially filled it with water. Junie Girl is going to have a small water garden. I am so Happy!!!!! and well then I took a lot of photo's to share---

Today I received an impatiens. I do not know what color it is, but it is in a 4 inch pot. We'll put it in a larger container on the porch once we pass our frost free date in a few weeks.
We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart? The other heart was given to another for us to find.
