Had to be at work at 6:00 am this morning. Trying to get all the information into Great Plains so they can start using it.

It’s not going too well.

After a frustrating day, I came home to my peaceful corner. The birds singing and the hummers flitting around their feeders soon washed all the frustrations of the day away.

Took a couple of photos of some of the day lilies that are blooming right now. I’m still waiting on my fancy ones to bloom, but they don’t like my soil and I’ve got to figure out what to do about that before they die completely.

Here are my hardy boys 🙂

This is what is euphemistically referred to as a “ditch lily” by the daylily enthusiasts. I don’t care — it’s very pretty!

I really don’t remember where I got this one from. It’s paler than my common lily and has a bit of a ruffle to the petals.

No, these are not lilies — they’re what I’ve always referred to as pinks — it’s a ground cover-type plant that has lavender edged flowers.

Don’t know about y’all, but we’re pretty dry here. The blackberries are tiny on the bushes — not much for jelly this year. My figs started out well, but have been set back these last few weeks of dry weather.

At least the grass isn’t up to my hiney.

Silver linings 🙂

Love to all,

Margaret
