I have been busy doing yard work. I had a lot of mulching to do and still have more. I have tow long walkways with flowerbeds lining them. I also have flower beds along the edges of the spillway in the back yard and along the back of the house. Now I may have to put one along the front of the yard as people across the street, turn around and run across the edge of my lawn making ruts. Wednesday, a neighbor girl, Emily, did some work for me. She crawled under the deck with the leaf blower and cleaned out under there. Then she helped me carry some rocks from the back flowerbed up to the front to put along the edge of the lawn next to the road. The kids are happy to do some work and earn some money for themselves. Dalton, who is a twin boy of 10, weeded my iruses. His mother said the boys are thrilled to be earning their own money. She is a single Mom with health problems and unable to work. They all live with her mother.
I was going to cut the grass today but the forecast is bleak for the next two days. It poured last night and things are wet this morning. It looks like it is raining now. I still have the flats to plant. I have portulacas for the sunny areas and wax begonias for the shaded areas. I have some kind of purple plant I got from my friend, Joan' greenhouse. It blooms in the shade. I want some color in the back flowerbed.
If it's raining tomorrow, I may not be able to get to the cemetary. Maybe I'll go on Sunday. We have no Sunday School so I can get an early start.
