The other night Steve pointed out to me how long it's been since I have written a blog post.
I welcomed the motivation and decided to "blow away the cobwebs" and get myself into a blogging groove.
I spent much of my summer in the garden.
This is the first summer in years that I've been able to water my garden and watch it bloom.
Canna lilies popped up all over the garden
and are still blooming.
One small cosmos plant went crazy
and has taken over the yard.
I too went crazy planting seeds, buying nearly every plant at the nursery
and tucking them all over the yard.
Actually, they start out on the front yard bench for a week or two and then they get planted.
The flowers beneath the living room window grew so tall that I had to move the old red chair so it could be seen.
Steve likes riding his cruiser to check the surf so I put the flowers in a basket that he can quickly remove before he takes off.
I have taken time to stop and smell the flowers
and stretch out on a chaise reading.
I blame this little guy for my lack of blogging or creating - he and his mama were with us for nearly a week.
But, I did make new chaise covers in white.
I had the big red pillows, but I made the little pillows from fun tea towels.
I chose the white background so I can change up the pillows through the seasons - Halloween pillows will be next.
And now, that I am refreshed
you'll be seeing my comments as I get back to reading blogs and the plan is to post weekly.
That might be difficult because September was ushered in today with a perfect weather and there will be more to come, but I'm up to the challenge!
