rain!
May 9, 2009 – 12:44 pm
Yesterday morning, the impending weather looked so bad that I gathered DD from school at 10 AM. We spent about forty minutes in the basement, just before noon, waiting out a tornado warning. We did get some high winds and there was some major damage south of us, but the only ill effect for us […]
sweet spring
April 25, 2009 – 9:00 pm
I did manage to go outside today. Am finally feeling like I’m on the mend, though still do not feel “good.” But being outside for a while improved my state of mind, if nothing else. The Spanish bluebells were in the yard when we bought this house in 1994. There are a lot of columbine […]
spring…up close and personal
April 23, 2009 – 10:16 pm
Yesterday, I spent about an hour outside. Rode the mower around the yard. Took some pictures. Watched DH plant tomatoes. Even did a little mowing, though it tired me out. I should have stayed indoors because that little jaunt set me back a bit. But I did get some pictures. The first flush of spring, […]
as i passed by
April 21, 2009 – 5:42 pm
This afternoon, as I prepared to leave the house to pick up DD from school to take her to music lessons, I hoped to get into the yard to take a few pictures. I miscalculated my strength. By the time I struggled down the back steps with my laptop, DD’s guitar, her after school snacks, […]
bits from the yard
April 17, 2009 – 10:18 pm
I’ve had to spend a few days with my leg up, due to some swelling, but this evening I managed to get outside for a little while. It was a beautiful day and I didn’t want to miss it. I checked the veggie garden. The radishes are getting bigger. I broadcast the lettuce seed and […]
dogwood blossoms
April 3, 2009 – 3:34 pm
The dogwood trees are beginning to open their buds. We have three dogwoods ready to bloom. One is still in a tight bud, one has blossoms still cupped and and one has blossoms that have opened but haven’t turned white yet. Last year, they had no more than a few flowers. I guess the hard […]
just a dusting
March 29, 2009 – 8:54 pm
We woke up to a little bit of snow this morning. DH took all the photos, except the last one, just before 8:00 a.m. I took the last one just before 10:00 a.m. Front yard… East yard… Fenced garden… The daffodils started the day bowed to the ground. By afternoon, you would never have known […]
“be careful driving home in the rain”…
March 28, 2009 – 11:46 am
…said my 11 year old when I dropped her off at a friend’s house this morning. 🙂 Practicing her mommy skills, I guess. Dogwood branches in the rain…if it weren’t so chilly out, I’d use my tripod to get a prettier picture. Took this one as I stood under the carport, before dashing into the […]
