If I had to choose between losing my hearing or losing my sight...it would be a tough choice. I would hate not being able to read and other things, but really. I would really hate not being able to hear the birds sing.
I just heard a ROBIN!
Yeah...first one. I am so happy.
My friend just bought his dream car. Yeah! Pretty exciting for him.
You will notice the beautiful orange truck. That one is our winter beater.
It is perfect. Starts no matter what...even in the bitter cold. It also has the
right amount of rust.
The windshield fluid also sprays out towards the front of the truck...perfect.
Good for a laugh everytime....hehe!
I actually managed to pull myself away from the computer and go outside today. For me, that is a big deal. I am sure I would be lost without the internet, that is a sad statement right there. However, I am sure that I am not the only one...it is such a part of daily life for most.
Anyway I did make it outside for afew hours, had to come back in because it is beginning to look like rain. It was sprinkling very lightly. They were even calling for thunderstorms. I could really go for one of those, but later when it's dark...
Cleaned up the front flowerbed and along one side of the house while the man finished raking our disgusting lawn. I sprinkled grass seed around so maybe that will improve things alittle. The place hasn't been taken care of at all, if ever and it shows. I've lived here for a couple years and I try and do what I can, when I can...with very little money or help.
On the plus side I have 3 different kinds of lilies coming up, hollyhocks (everywhere), artemesia, dianthus, campanula (everywhere)...I like it alot. I didn't make it to the roses...they are all along the east side of the house. I pretty much let them do whatever they want to. Oh...and I have 2 peonies coming up.
The backyard is a whole different story. Lilac tree has buds...yippee. I love lilacs, the farm had alot of them. Some kind of weird plum trees in the back...last year we ate alot and so did the birds. Come to think of it...so did the neighbors. Which brings me to the garden and I have no plans for it yet.......other than sunflowers. I will have to think on the garden for a week or two.
The sun is shining now...must go.
