yay, the new umbrella is finally up…

last night my grandson arrived with the four base pieces so we could put it together…

one of the crosspieces on the bottom didn’t fit correctly so he had to take that piece back to the store and have it replaced… happily they had one available…

back home he finished putting it all together and I think it is going to be perfect…

now I will be able to have visitors to the garden at any time of the day… really looking forward to more garden visits…

after supper I tried opening and closing it a few times before he left, lol… let us hope I can remember exactly what to do;-)…

and I did remember this morning;-)… yay…

WWTB day 6…

bit of a sleep in this morning as I didn’t have to be at the office until 9…

during the very early morning there was a big thunderstorm, which kept me awake… so I hadn’t slept well for the second night and started the day with a serious headache…

got a few shots of the eggplants covered in rainwater before heading out…

dropped the camper off and got a quick bye grandma… much more enthusiastic today, lol…

not long after I got home (early because we started late and finished early today) the wind blew the umbrella right off the table and onto the deck by the hot tub just a few feet from the middle guy… scary…

we went over to the Park to hunt for Pokémon and when we got there the app stopped working… so instead, we searched for frogs and found a bunch…

nice to have some one-on-one time with this guy… we picked up the camper and walked over the bridge for ice cream at Sargent Sundae… spotted a plane flying over the river as we crossed it…

heard about everyone’s day as we had supper…

did laundry because at least one of these young men gets his clothes really dirty, lol…

difficult…

another early work day… juice had the cutest little umbrella in it…


been thinking of many I know who are dealing with difficult issues right now… health, work, loss… so much sadness…

happy news, today was a colleague’s birthday…


this was the gorgeous rose she received…

seems like flowers everywhere…

tonight I made lettuce wraps with taco meat and grated cheese… I like this type of meal because you have to work to get it eaten… even though it is cold, windy and overcast outside, this was a very nice meal… felt like Spring, at least in the house, lol…

been a full week… glad to have the day off tomorrow…

Friday fun…

put out the garbage and watched a bit of tv… then spent the morning working in the front flower beds with two great helpers… got a lot done… the wild roses are gone for now and we moved the woman water feature into one of the beds…

the side bed got weeded and we divided and moved a hosta… then after they left I sat in the garden and read for a while… spent the rest of the day waiting for someone to come and fix the bathroom door in the basement… never did show up…

my lovely young carpenter friend came by to put a last coat of paint on the closet that George started four or five years ago… Sunday we are going to pick up doors for him to install and he is going to put the trim up around the back door too…

then the kids arrived and Jeff got the water running in the fountain… he headed to work and we headed to their house for a sleepover… picked up a few groceries and a new umbrella for the deck…

now to bed, I’m tired:-)…
