That beautiful garden makes up for this, another birthday present from the sisters, for the garden:
It is a frog with a built in solar battery, so it can soak up the sun’s rays during the day and then glow in your garden for hours at night.
Scary, huh?
Went to bed early tonight, even by my standards. But even going to bed at 8:00 p.m. wasn’t going to save me – the pain in my side had me well awake and up at midnight. I attempted to pretend I could get back to sleep for another forty-five minutes, but when it became obvious…
The Mystery Plant is definitely not datura, day lilies nor salvia. It doesn’t have tubers like dahlias do, and having handled the plant I can personally attest to the fact that it is definitely not nettles! Bell flowers (at least the ones I’m familiar with) are far more delicate than these things. The buds on…
Cats sleeping at last. They’ve pushed me out of my bed. Must buy more tissues.
… it would seem that Niagra Falls is not up to the task of washing bird legs off the deck. At least my t-shirt is almost dry.
Met up with the ex last night for dinner and a movie. It was actually a pleasant evening, though I found myself babbling throughout. He has a tendency to leave big, awkward silences, which I feel compelled to fill. He’s taken care of getting my name off the old bank accounts finally, and says I…
The Professor has kept all his writings since high school. I, on the other hand, burnt my oldest stuff in a fit of pique shortly after high school, and then destroyed the rest of what I had shortly after college. I’d published a little bit when I was young, but had a moment of revelation…
Your garden is absolutely beautiful!
I had no idea I missed so much while I was gone. You are healing from your transplant! Wonderful. I am glad that you are doing so well. Isn’t life grand? *smile* Take care and best wishes for a total and quick recovery.
I love that frog.
P~
It’s sooo beautiful flower garden you got! I love it. Heh, Heh, your angel kitty looks like it stick his/her nose up the air…sniffs.. sniffs…
I have a cherry tree up front of the house. I hate to bring squish cherries in the house and get red spots all over the floor. Bleh..
Love your frog and dragonfly!

I love Morning Glories, they’re so pretty when they’re in bloom and can cover unsightly areas very quickly. Also, watch for Orioles, they love them too. I used to grow them until they started reseeding themselves and coming up EVERYWHERE like weeds. I like the cat.
Your garden looks wonderful, I love the stepping stones. Kudos to your sisters. Look at all those cherrys! To eat, to clean up! LOL. Now about that green frog…totally cool, I want one too.
Your garden is beautiful. What a wonderful goft for everyone to give you in taking care of it for you.

Great flowers…. I think we have some of those type, but not too sure. However, it looks great.

Reading about and seeing your garden has filed me with glee.
Everything is just beautiful!
I can see the beauty and the love that they put into it for you. You are so blessed to have such wonderful sisters.
Uh….
The Cherry trees.
The memories, the memories.
I grew up with three of them, I know exactly what you are talking about the birds and the stains.
My mother and I would pick cherries every year for her pies and to be canned. But if we did not get to the cherries before the birds did, well….we were just out of luck.

The frog may be scary, but that garden is the nicest thing I think I’ve heard about your sisters. Kudos to them! And it is beautiful! Enjoy!
Beautiful, just beautiful. What a view.
