Thought for the day ….

Good Morning and Welcome to Friday the 18th day of May, 2018.

The sun is shining very brightly this morning and the sky is the palest of blues.

There appears to be no breeze as the trees are standing still south of my office window.

I am so grateful to have five days in a row off from work.

Five days at home with Mr. Alvin.

This morning he has his regular Doctor appointment to trim his nails and stuff.

Later this morning my daughter and I are going flower shopping.

We will go to the same greenhouse/nursery that we have in prior years.

It is only a short drive from my house.

Family operated business and it is always good to support local.

They have a great selection of flowers, plants, and anything you may wish to have for your garden and yard.

So excited to have flowers ….

My perennials are coming up nicely in the front flower bed …. the ferns are in first place according to height.

The back flower bed is a bit behind the front but it is tucked in the corner so it takes longer for the plants to come back.

So much to do on this extra long weekend.

But for now …. time for breakfast …..

Keeping this short today …

Excited for tomorrow …. the Royal Wedding and we will be up extra early …. well not really as Mr. Alvin has us up usually before 4:00 a.m. ….

But early for a Saturday.

 

Happy Friday Everyone.

 

Special Hello to:  YOU

Always, Carol & Alvin

Thought for the day…..

Good Morning and Welcome to a bright sunny Thursday the 12th day of June, 2014.

WOW ….. DAY # 12.

Well so far this month has been pretty great …… and as time seems to be … passes quickly.

Tonight after supper my daughter and I are hitting the greenhouse for some flowers.

I love, love, love, love flowers …… did I say LOVE.

Of all the non-talking, non-breathing, non-human or animal – they are my absolute FAVOURITE thing.

I love everything about flowers ….. their fragrances, all of the colours, the unique shapes ….. they are the whole package.

Tonight I will be in dreamland.

My only wish is that I could purchase every single one or even half of them…… alas but it is only a dream.

Perhaps someday …… can you imagine…. buying every flower in the greenhouse or even several carts/pallets full.

Mmmmm ……… my deck and front porch are going to be beautiful.

I love impatiens because they are happy in partial shade and they are so pretty.

I love petunias because they love the sun …. who doesn’t ….

I love roses and lilies and pansies and dahlias and peonies and them all.

Carnations and some I cannot spell …..

So pretty ….. my heart is doing the happy dance ….. happy …….

I am so happy ……

I counted my pots and have 12 to fill.

Very carefully ……

I do have some roses in my back stone garden …… and some shrubs that faithfully spring back to life after a long snowy winter.

So YAY for today ……

Have a great day and I hope that it is filled with everything that makes you feel happy…… Happiness is: – – – – – –

Special Hello to: my sister who is enjoying a week of vacation.
