It was only 70 degrees
when I got up this morning. We
had 5 sprinkles last night. That must have
been what cooled things off. There was a breeze going
and everything. We hardly knew how to act.
Jack deadheaded the day lilies while I when for a short walk.
I have a very tenacious case of bursitis
in my hip and I have to stretch three times a day and before I bike (for only
ten minutes) Here is what it looks like when
I am stretching.
Of course, I am face up on the floor of the back porch.
I had to quit doing yoga in the mornings, because I would see
all the cobwebs on the ceiling. This is why I chose
to stretch on the back porch, outdoors, where spiders are supposed to be.
Our hibiscuses are blooming.
and here is a morning glory. I have been pulling out
this vine for years, and after having been left alone for 10 days
it offered me a flower.
I had no idea that it was a morning
glory. Just a volunteer blown in from
somewhere.
Speaking of volunteers, we have four glads.
Jack planted a row of bulbs years ago,
but they needed to be staked or they fell over. Just
not Jack's style. We are all about the wild and woolly here, stick it
it the ground and see what happens,
survival of the fittest.
We didn't bother to take the bulbs out
of the ground in the fall, but last year we had a couple come up
in the middle of the day lilies.
Look how delicate.
who would think to make something
this beautiful and then entrust it to us?
Jack is golfing today. He only had to wait seven days from
the heart cath. I was going to sew, but I did a little house work,
and found the house to be so quiet that I decided to
make a cup of tea and knit.
I usually love being home, alone, on days Jack golfs,
but I admit it is a little lonely, today,
and the dogs and I are just waiting for him to come home.
