Good Morning All,
Welcome to a bright, blue sky, breezy morning here in Edmonton.
We seem to having a lot more wind here than we did when I moved here over ten years ago.
The garbage truck just went by ….. stopping and starting as they do along their route.
Geese honking and other birds chirping away.
Our window is open in the office so we are hearing all of the sounds that our neighbourhood is making as it slowly comes to life.
Not many people up and out.
So many of our neighbours are working from home.
I do know some of my neighbours that are slowly beginning to go back to their places of employment.
I love this time of day.
Perfection.
If I had my poop in a group or ducks in a row, I would have been organized earlier and sat out on the deck and drank a cup of coffee all the time enjoying the morning.
But alas did not happen.
Oh well, next best thing, window open, coffee in a travel mug and will enjoy as I start to work.
I have my coffee up here and ready to go.
I have been dragging my keister the past few mornings likely due to my watching how much I stand and such.
But anyway that is okay.
Perhaps on Saturday morning …… read my book on the deck and drink some coffee.
Alvin loves to lie on the deck and enjoy the sun until it gets too hot.
Did you plant flowers this year?
What kinds?
Are they doing okay?
Flowering?
Thanks to my darling daughter I have impatiens, petunias and marigolds.
Most of my perennials are up and some are even flowering.
I cannot believe that one day my ferns in the front flower bed were barely a spot of green and already they are several inches tall.
Before I know it they will be reaching for the sky …… over two feet tall.
They grow so fast.
The irises and others are up.
Unfortunately I don’t remember all the names of the shrubs and plants I have in the back and front gardens.
Oh and lilies.
Love the lilies.
The recent rain has definitely helped plants and the grass and trees grow, bud and bloom.
The grass is this most beautiful green, I guess kelly green.
So, so pretty.
The dandelions dot most lawns and they were in full glory a week or so ago.
Then they go to seed.
I hope that the bees got to them before they were sprayed or went to seed.
I feel so bad for Mother Nature and then Man happens.
Well time for coffee and get signed onto work computer.
Wishing you the most grand of Tuesdays.
Filled with some laughter, even on a Tuesday you must have a giggle or three, oh come maybe four giggles.
Our life is way to serious.
We must laugh along the way.
If we all live in kindness and with respect.
Even if we slip or have a moment, we all do.
Climb back up and live again in kindness and with respect.
Happy Tuesday.
With kindness and respect.
I/We shall remain,
As Always, Carol & Alvin
