Man, I was wiped out this past week! It’s like I forgot how
to manage my energy for a week of work after being off for a week. I didn’t
read any blogs, or really do anything at all except a bit of crochet &
playing mindless games on my iPad. So far this week is better (yes, I know it’s
just Monday- ha!)
Sunday,
July 8th
My question is this: how many different types of bread do
two people need? We’ve got yer hotdog buns, and yer hamburger buns, and rye
bread, bagel thins, and regular sandwich bread. Sheesh!
Monday,
July 9th
Flowers! Mostly from the wildflower
bed, but there’s one morning glory in there. The morning glories have lost
their dang minds – I’ll have to get a picture of the two vines we’ve got.

Chair from work.
I was so sleepy, but had to take a picture & post about how sleepy I was, but couldn't go to bed until I finished the row - and then I finished the row.
Wednesday,
July 11th
No picture!

Daylilies!
Friday,
July 13th
I came home from work to find
that Dr. M had mowed. Almost made me cry for the second week in a row – I wasn’t
looking forward to mowing in this heat!
More daylilies – I love the
variety that the neighbor has.
Look at this cosmos stalk. I
think they’re plotting the takeover of the world!

Today I went with my sister-in-law to the Raleigh airport to
pick up my niece. She’s been living in Miami because she was recruited by her
dream cheer team. She’s home for two weeks & that Mama is very happy!
Our impatiens are still doing very well – a calm oasis in
the back yard.
I may or may not ever make it around to everyone’s blogs. I
hope to eventually anyway – I miss you guys!
Coming back from vacation is tough!
ReplyDeleteOMG that chair - I swear, as I scrolled down the page and by this chair, I heard it say, "Eat mor chikin!"
Right?!? Disturbing...
DeleteHahahaha!
DeleteI love impatiens. I didn't know it until the BRD planted some in her front yard many years ago.
ReplyDeleteThey are happy little flowers!
DeleteI wasn’t looking forward to mowing in this heat!
ReplyDeleteTurned off the lawn sprinkler at my house before we went on vacation. The heat and lack of rain pretty much killed off the grass and weeds. On the plus side, that meant I didn't have to cut the lawn Sunday.
Unfortunately, (or fortunately?) we've had too much rain for that to work for us. If we had sprinklers :)
DeleteWe live in a meteorological anomaly, apparently. My dad lives 15 miles south of us and hasn’t needed to mow for several weeks. We have to mow every week!
DeleteCOW CHAIR COW CHAIR COW CHAIR!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd your bread collection rivals my mustard collection: ya got yer dijon, ya got yer ballpark, ya got yer yellow, ya got yer coarse grain, ya got yer Gulden's...!
(PS--the Dept. is back up.)
We have several types of mustard to go with the different breads!
DeleteWoo hoo! Go Dept.! Maybe someday I'll have time to read...
DeleteI don't know about cosmos taking over the world but they will take over the yard.
ReplyDeleteI'd be ok with that :)
DeleteOur cosmos are amazingly big, too. Those plants are tough!
ReplyDeleteI don't think morning glories HAVE minds. Just sayin'.
Ha! Just happy little flowers...
DeleteOur jungle is taking over. Too overwhelming to deal with. Help!
ReplyDeleteLove yours. Always wanted to have cosmos, and morning glories!
That first one is stunning!!!
Abour bread. I've had success with the bread machine. :)
But ran out of bread flour and mixed in some GF. Came out ok but with a slight rancid taste.
Looked at the package. Oops! expired in 2016! In the garbage!
I would have used that mix - 2016 wasn't THAT long ago. Ha!
