Rainy Days



The last few days have been rainy so not much done to complete my landscape timbers.  I only have a few more things to do.  Next then I'm moving on to help my mom do hers.    I still need to finish the raise flower bed, buy dirt to fill it, some more white marbles for the walk way.  It's going to take a lot of dirt once I get it built.    I should have enough mulch left over for the raise flower bed without having to buy anymore.  I'm just doing it a little at time.   That's basically all I can do.  

My azalea bushes are starting bloom out with all the rain.  I have several nasturtiums coming up from seeds.  I planted a lot of different flower seeds some I got from last years plants.  I'm hoping they will come up.   I have a lot of daisy types of flowers seeds....Blue Eyed Beauties, Alaskan Shasta Daisies,  Gazania Punch Bowl Hybrid's, and few others.  Along with my usual dwarf sun flowers, morning glories, and 4 o'clocks.    If all my seeds actually come up I'm going to have more flowers than what I'm going to know what to do with.  I can always pot some and give to my friends. 

Of course I took pictures of my azalea bushes....  I'll post some below.   Oh, just another thing to share,  the waspers are terrible this year.  I got stung yesterday, it flew up under my hoodie jacket and stung me on my stomach.  Yep a big red place this morning and blister where it stung.   Thank goodness I'm not allergic.   Mom gave me a big can of wasp spray and she has them swarming around her porch.  One good thing though I've seen more honey bee's this year already than last year.  Last year I only seen one honey bee the whole year.  I've already seen a dozen or so this year.  Maybe the honey bee is making a rebound.    Wasps are known to attack honey bee's.  So, I plan on spraying those boogers when I get a chance.   Picked up a metal flower bed stake for the fourth of July.  I already put it out.  I'm starting to look very patriotic.  I also liked that it says In God We Trust.
