Ketch-up Day

 

If you celebrate, did you have a good Labor Day? It was quiet here. 

It finally stopped raining. Dried out and immediately went into the high 90s. I had to start watering again then you guessed it, it started raining again. I give up trying to figure out Mother Nature. 

The HH made popcorn and we watched Episodes of Season Two RINGS OF POWER.  Anyone else watching it?

I'm saddened and weary of the war, and the unbelievable cruelty humans managed to inflict on one another. 

On to less depressing topics.

Critter Pic and The Eternal Garden


I finally have little peppers;) Can you see it?





Yay. I have Irises blooming again. (Only the white ones. It's been a hard summer.)

AND



From California.

Thank you, Jacqui.

Love your eternal garden. Mother Nature makes her own rules.

We are all weary of war, Sandra, but we have been inflicting savagery on each other since hominids first walked the Earth. And it will never stop.

I've seen Ring of Power advertised on my screen, but I would have to pay for it or pay for a subscription to a channel.

The news from the Middle East is awful. Those poor hostages who survived so long and then killed just before they were to be rescued, never mind the cruelty Israel is inflicting on the innocent in Gaza. It is a relief to look at your photos.

No Ring of Power here...yet. We watched Dark Winds on Netflix. Two seasons but sadly, it has an ending. SO good.
All the plants are so pretty especially the Iris!

My heart stopped to see the darling face of my pup Casey on your blog. I just adore that guy. Thank you for including him!

I will check out RINGS OF POWER. We're binging Vera right now, but will soon run out.

Funky shot of the butterfly.
Yes, we are watching Rings of Power! Almost too many characters to follow now. But enjoying it.

Sandra Cox said...

I'm glad you enjoy it:) Innit the truth about Mother Nature?

Me enamore del gato y el perro. Te mando un beso.

Sandra Cox said...

I wish I could argue with you, but I just said the same to thing to the HH recently.

Sandra Cox said...

Awful certainly sums it up.

Jamie Ghione said...

Love the flower picture with the butterfly.

Sandra Cox said...

Haven't seen Dark Winds. Glad you liked the Iris:)

Sandra Cox said...

I don't think we've seen Vera.
Casey has such a sweet, sweet face. Thanks for letting me post him:)

Sandra Cox said...

LOL Excellent analogy on washing the car and rain.
Yup. Trouble is his middle name;)
Glad you liked the photos:)
YOU, take special care.

The wars are very sad. I am also sickened by the fact that in the German province of Thuringia, a far right political ahole was voted in. He flew the Nazi flag twice, apparently. I thought there was 0 tolerance for that in Germany? How are these dangerous people getting votes and that people follow them? It’s so scary that it makes me feel so uneasy. On a much nicer note…love your pics of your garden and your nice pepper. Love that doggie..he looks so happy.

Sandra Cox said...

There's a lot of characters, for sure. I think my favorites right now are Gandalp and the two little hobbit girls:) What about you.

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

I've had it with war. I wish I had a way to block it out, but I don't.

On a brighter note, I love your eternal garden. It is beautiful. I fear Mother Nature is off her meds!!

Jeanie said...

The Ring of Power sounds interesting. I need to check it out. And I agree on war. We don't really celebrate Labor Day but we did have a fun one, with a road trip up north to see our oldest!

Nature (your garden) uplifts the spirit and makes us put aside for a while the wars and cruelty of mankind.
