Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? Watcha been doing?

Do those of you outside the U.S. get scammer calls, texts and emails like we do? We are inundated with them. One of those malfeasantes called me at 5:00 a.m. yesterday. And I was on my way to eight hours of sleep, something that seldom happens. AND We've had a couple of weeks of rain. The gauge shows seven inches. Everything is saturated, including the crab grass. It took me three days to get the backyard mowed. The body was willing but the mower was not. It would cough and sputter till it finally stopped and no amount of coaxing, outside of a good long rest would get it started again.  Hopefully, we can keep it from getting in that condition again, even if it means mowing in the wet:)

The flowers are still a bit sparse, but gearing up again:

The butterflies are still a delight.

AND 

The white irises are still blooming. Who'd a thought? Oh yes, and my grape hyacinths are coming up.  The flowers are so confused.

Thanks, Shane.

 

That's it from here. What about you, blogger buds?  Do you need to build an Ark yet? Mowing a challenge? Has the weather confused your flowers?

Hope you aren't in the path of Hurricane Erin.
