Outdoor Wednesday










 Well this new editor is proving a bit of a challenge and another thing to learn.
I made it through the images a bit mixed up but non the less a post.
 


 
I can not post with this new editor! arg!

I want to make coment under each photo and it will not let me~
Any way I dug down a good 6 inches and filled in the flower bed. By using the spike on the pick and then shoveling it all out...it opened up the bed to receive the garden mix that came for free. As you can see there was just what I needed.It was a lot of work today...It is the sweetest thing to have a vision and just do all I can toward it and ask for what I need then see the way and the means come to do it. The Right side elbow was finished as well with the free garden soil.
I stopped and got 15 blocks...the first ones I have purchased...lettuce and herbs in the little holes.

The arbor was a find a while back on a clearance at a big lots store.
So now I await the the fence so I can move in some horse manure and keep the dogs out of it.
Susie can you see it?
I had an idea to set the feet of the arbor into a mold and cast concrete so it can set on the soil at sidewalk level the gates will then be able to open out. The weight will keep it stable as well. 

Lots of flowers and vine flowers on the arbor around the master bedroom window.
Well after the four hours of loading the soil into the truck and the two hours setting the block...I had had a good hard work out.
Steve unloaded the truck last night and we had just the amount of it we need.

Today another 4 hours of hard work removing the dirt/rock after it was picked loose leaves me with the vision almowt set to plant.
It is so good to set my heart to create.
My work has been given favor and I feel so grateful...

Very nice!! I like the arbor, thats going to look pretty, and the gazebo, I like it too, well.....I just like the whole yard. I told Larry that if we ever get a chance to buy another home, I want one with a good size back yard so I can plant a garden, one day....all in Gods plan, I will have that garden, in the mean time I will enjoy looking at yours and the beautiful produce that is produces for you & your family.

Love ya~
Annette

wow! that looks like a lot of work. Turned out really nice. Love your furry helper.
sorry your new editor is giving you troubles. I cannot stand it when I endup with a "new" thing and I just want to do something "simple" without spending a ton of time.

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)

By Maya Angelou

'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"
