A spring update to keep things in check

Category: updates | Posted: Tue May 19, 2009 1:27 pm

I been real busy this spring. I miss not getting on with the stew as much as I would like to. I'd like to show more picts. My son is graduating-with his Baccalaureate this Sunday and his graduation ceremony on Friday, 29th we been busy getting the yard looking somewhat nice and especially the house. Doing alot of spring cleaning thru out. He'll have his grad. party in june. There always seem like alot to do. Decorations to buy, tables to rent, senior pict to get sent out, invitations to write up. And then maybe the most important-getting him sent off to college. He'll be an automotive tech. He likes working on cars. Off he'll go for 2 years.
And my oldest daughter just graduated from college as dental hygienist. She'll be expecting her 1st baby in September. Yes I'll be um, hmmm, oh ya, a grandma-remind you though, a young grandma. :)
So as you can see I have been having many things going on. Hopefully when things settle down a bit I can get to showing more picts of my new 'hilbilly greenhouse'-(thats another story). Also of any flowers I haven't been able to show. Everything that I've had in the house over the winter I did just put out in the greenhouse so atleast 1/2 of my greenhouse is filled up. there'll be another pict. I don't want to forget, also, someone was wanting to see my trellis that the clementis climbs on and also some wooden chairs that sit out by my pond (that my hubby built) well if your the one reading this I haven't forgotten, I have taken the pictures of them just need to load & post them. Now let me see, hmm, anything I'm forgetting for this update. I sure hope not I only have 2 1/2 weeks till the party, sure hope everything gets done. Will post quick notes when I can and updates in 2-3 weeks.
For now I'll leave you with one of my latest, the white tulip.

Hey-hey, welcome to the Granny-club! :D My oldest granddaughter is seven, and I'm still very young at heart. Enjoy your boy's parties and your borders. We'll be here when you have more time on your hands. I'm looking forward to more photos and the story around the hillbilly greenhouse.

Congratulations! I'd love some tips on greenhouse growing as I've just gotten one. Good to know how nice a family you have, Petunia. Enjoy your garden.

Congratulations to you all! It must feel nice to see your children engaged in things they like. I was the one asking about your clematis trellis made out of branches... and I'll look forward to seeing it when you have time. No hurries. Enjoy your family and events!
