Fixing up the back yard

Hello
Wow that was a hot and busy morning.
I went over to Denise Samaritan woman and took a charming visit of her yard and all she had created during her blog vacation.
Mercy did she inspire me... Denise now my husband just might want to strangle you hahaha.

I love the meaning of flowers.
During the Victorian times the meaning of the flower you sent spoke loudly of the message you intended. It is just one of the little sociology interest of mine. People do things for a reason or many reasons. I love to understand these thing. Culture even in history that distant can even effect us to this day.

Now as for aloe it is a flower with the meaning of mourning.

Well by the look of this back yard....
It is in mourning alright :)
Time to move it!

Recently I lost my nephew so in honor of him I send this off to the helpful people corner of the yard.
He was such a helpful young man.
I think There will be some ivy grown under the tree one day.
Perhaps some zinnia and sweet pea too.
I may just move the iris over under this tree too.

Coming back through the gate...
Bren and Denise both have recently put op some trellis...
We no longer need to two recycle bins so I will have the smaller on returned. It is free to have an extra recycle bin here. Now we are growing so much more we are having so much less to recycle.
With just the two big cans they really might work well to build that trellis to surround them.
Then grow a climbing cabbage rose on it facing the chairs perhaps.

He's the man!
Oh my but he is mine nananan.
I am sure in love with this guy head over heals.

After we removed the liner that still had a good gallon of concentrated high fuctose sryup in it.

He edged for me and then we did the work it entailed to put it in place.
Unfortunately he had to go in and help the kids.
They had dropped a 48 oz! glass jar of pickles!!!!!!
He was helping them clean up.
I went to the door to remind him I could not leave the garden unattended.
I was so hot and thirsty!!!!!!!
Then when I stuck my head in the door....
VINEGAR!!!!!!!!!!!

Well eventually we both got the tasks accomplishe.
We did a lot of work in the garden
I will post over at BEE BLISS GARDENS.
Pictures at least...post words later.

Family is awaiting me.
Time to go see the grandparents then get right back her to watch
The old movie
HARVY!

Oh don't you just love a clean palate in which to paint! AND tell your sweet hubby that I am soooooooo sorry and I will come and help! What a wonderful blank page in which to start! I am going to sit and watch!

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"

Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
