It's Monday... and The Blog Cafe is hosted this week by The Adventures of Mike and His Bike--Jenny's husband! I wonder what adventure or biking tips he has in store for us?... See you here!
**If you'd like to host the Cafe one week, please email us at: theblogcafe@yahoo.com We'll get you on the list and give you a hosting date! **
I'm a bit slow to posting and visiting after Dear Husband and I spent the whole weekend gardening--very tired after quite a lot of heavy work making big changes to flower beds, lifting stones & mulch, sowing seeds, and too much HOT sun! But I'll be back in just a bit... And be sure to stop in by the end of the week for some fun and a little surprise... Happy Week!
With Love,
I am conflicted about getting out in the garden to weed. My Dr. has ordered me to rest my neck... but the weather has just become perfect for gardening....sigh.

At least you could get out in your garden -- here it rained, actually poured, and then turned cold. Brrrrr. I stayed inside under and afghan with a good book. Have a great week.

Just the thought of all that gardening tired me out. Have a great week.

Way to go on the gardening! We have had rain and rain and rain but I think Summer may have been last Saturday and I was able to get out and get one flower garden planted. It makes me smile to look out the window now.
See you at Mike's!

You'll have much to enjoy this summer in your garden after all that hard work. Enjoy your rest.

Sorry you are tired but I bet the garden appreciated your efforts!
Hugs for a wonderful week!

I bet your garden looks great, I bet your finger nails are ruined. The good thing as that whatever work you put into the garden it repays you many times over and your nails will grow back.

Thank you, Tracy, for your comments on my blog.
It is always good to hear from you.
I can picture you in the Norwegian sunshine digging in the dirt and planting flowers to be enjoyed all summer long.
Have fun as you continue digging and planting.

Hi Tracy--we have had such a weird spring. We've gone from snow to hot-hot in just a few weeks. So my gardening has been quite sporadic. But it feels so good to be out working in the dirt!
See you at Mike's for the Blog Cafe!

Hi Tracy - the garden needs a lot of work just now - between the warmer weather and the rain ..... but fortunately for me Malcolm has taken over looking after the garden since he retired!! Have a good week, love, Anne

Dearest tracy sounds like you had a great weekend!! I am looking forward to have a peek at your gorgeous garden. :) Have a lovely merry happy week and love to yoU!

Okay. Now I feel somewhat conflicted. I am envious of the hot sun (considering we've had nothing but rain) but I don't like gardening so I'm not keen on the yard work. As I mentioned, I am conflicted. Hope your tired muscles feel better soon!

After suffering horribly with poison ivy last year (I'm very allergic) I am doing more container gardening this year with potting soil. It's safer and definitely easier work! Have a great week!

Tracy, we keep missing each other on the computer! I tried to call you on the phone yesterday afternoon, but no answer. I did leave a message. One of these days we will connect! Don't work too hard in that garden. You don't want to tire yourself out too much! ((((hugs)))) Love you loads! XXOO

Hope you are having a good week Tracy and not overdoing it on the gardening front! Take time to smell the flowers and enjoy!

Tracy, glad to hear you guys were so productive over the weekend. I had a hot weekend too being down in Florida to visit family. I wish I had room for a little garden of my own. Have a happy week sweet friend.

O no gardening is really hard work!
You have such a lovely place here :)
