I am such a sucker for survivors. Like this pretty cracked milk glass piece…with its tiny crack.
Like these tiny portulaca plants and petunias. They are annuals here in the midwest. But they determinedly sprouted up this year. The weird thing? The portulaca were from TWO summers ago!! In a hanging planter on the balcony rail that I wanted SuperGuy to tear down and get rid of. But I couldn’t stand to lose these spunky plants. So I dug them up and put them in a few pots in the backyard. Didn’t really think they’d make it.
But look! they are going to bloom! Wonder if they’ll come back again next year? I guess they didn’t read the gardening book on how they are annuals in our climate. Will get pretty macro shots of the blooms soon. :love:
Drop by tomorrow, I’ll actually have some photos of ME at the wedding. Who knew?? :rofl:

Ah, remember when SuperGuy made the neato keeno arbor archway down to the gazebo? Sure you do. It looks like this:
Okay, the arbor looks crooked here but I swear on all things sacred and my boys’ baby booties that this arbor is spot on straight on. If you ever met SuperGuy, you’d know I was telling the absolute truth. He doesn’t do things halfway. Ever.
Anyway, these pretty white flowers are now climbing all over it. Doesn’t it look lovely. Of course, we can’t remember the name of the flower, but SuperGuy is going to ask at the nursery the next time he goes in. Which is about weekly–if not twice on the weekends– by the way. :crazy: The nursery owners love us this year.
Here is the flower climbing right up with our clear lights that we have had lighting the walkway to the gazebo. The squirrels decided they had to eat through the wiring on these lights… :mad2: Next Christmas, we’re stocking up on clear lights, that’s for sure! Let me know when you see a sale!

Sigh, it’s now time to get back to the real world.
Yes, I know. Darker than I usually edit my photos, but it suits my mood. I must go back to work. I must finish up cleaning the house and doing laundry…all the while the siren call of the wedding & rehearsal photos woos me back to the computer.
I’ll putter around in the empty, empty house. I’m going to attack my mile long to do list, I swear. I’m also knee deep in redoing some forms for my photography business and I’m going to get the shopping cart for my business up and runing if it kills me. Which it might…
See, it’s not like I don’t have things I need to be doing…while I sit here with my cup of coffee and the crossword puzzle… and avoid all of them. Ah, come chat with me here. Find me on Facebook and talk to me. Tell me it’s okay to procrastinate just a tiny bit longer before jumping back into the real world. :believe:
(oh my gosh!! It’s June 28th!! Where did this month go???)
