Sunny Sunday..................

Today was a lovely day and I was watching Ryland so didn't attempt to do anything. I had thought about going out today but was tired. This getting up at 5am is not doing my body any good. If I had to do this constantly I would have to make a big effort to go to bed early, This is the last day for babysitting so I am thinking tomorrow I will sleep in............Then next week I have plans to either tidy up this garden or rearrange things inside. Monday though I will rest up best I can and get some strength back.
This afternoon I went out to see whats going on out there. The bee's were busy out back they were enjoying the Garlic Chives.


I love the Garlic Chives, the flowers are so pretty. Look at this pretty little bee




The Mums are full and pretty right now.

Ryland, my little charge for the day is sitting reading and later feeding the fish.


Happy Fish

I filled the bird feeders and the Blue Jays were first in to enjoy the bounty.


The poodles got their hair cuts yesterday and so were enjoying some sunshine

I was enjoying checking out the seeds, I love how beautiful they are, and of course the promise of the year to come.







The daisies are all battered from the rains, several days last week as well as bugs that have been chowing down on everything.

Some flowers still surviving but not very showy, it's been a very weird year. The garden was never really impressive at all.

The Hydrangea are small and sparse but very pretty.



Well there is a lot to do out there so that I won't have so much to do in the Spring. That will depend upon the weather. If it's hot or wet forget it. I am done with heat.

So the garden is pretty much ready to be put to bed. I should get bulbs now for Spring, but Spring is so far off I just can't get in the mood to spend money on next year. It is only September after all. I am just wondering what kind of Autumn we will have.
