Monday Morning

No,  it’s not a sitrep sort of thing. Well, kind of.

I continued to work on the hedge this weekend. Well, Sunday.  All that’s left is the lily bed and to plant more ivy.

Hi there!

hedge222161

Hope you all like looking at me as much as I like looking at you. Which is not at all. That huge green wall made so much difference. Like it was my own secret garden.

Well, with dog shit.

Nothing’s perfect.

I hate living on a postage stamp.

 

Going, Going…

Gone. I hope you’re happy asshole, because now you’ll see every move the dogs and I make in the back…

It’s down now; I just have to do cleanup. What a mess.

I feel nekkid.

The plants themselves are nearly dead… maybe I should replant? Should it be confederate ivy again or something else?

Would it surprise anyone to know that I’ve been standing out there in the middle of it all, staring at that house? You reap what you sow…

 

Vizcaya

My husband’s sister and her boyfriend visited this past week and we took them to Vizcaya. What a beautiful place, inside and out! But the policy is no photography inside; I almost cried!

No-Name Buds and More

Holly Golightly had a no-name cat and similarly I have a no-name crepe myrtle. Two, actually. The almost decrepit yet interesting nursery where I bought them had no idea of -well, any- of their names, so I took a chance b/c they were only 5.00 each!

Hoping for a tall, willowy variety I think the opposite will be true. So moving them is a distinct possibility. Still… BUDS!

It’s sort of a strange photo. You know I critique each about… in perpetuity. This could have stood more contrast but I liked the way it blended into the background… yet not.

No post is complete without lilies… in the Spring, anyway.

Side view of the lily bed. It’s thriving with all the rain! (Sorry, Californians)

Last but not least, the bloody plumerias. Didn’t really believe I’d leave ’em out, did you?

I think my camera and I need to go on walkabout.
