Grounded...

Our Bonnie Plants that I ordered online arrived late last week in very good condition.  How did we ever get along without computers?  They certainly do come in handy when one is home bound most of the time.

The Old Farmer's Almanac said Sunday and yesterday were fertile planting days, so with storms forecast and coming on Sunday, I opted for Monday planting.  All of the plants are now in the ground, plus seeds have been sown.  Now we wait and water...

Our cat, Dinky Sugar thought Momma had made her a gigantic litter box, so the first thing I had to do was put up netting as protection from her and the various other birds and critters that like to nibble on green things.

We still have some more things we want to plant in the raised garden, but what we have now will do for starters.  With the raised garden underway, I have enlisted the help of my Studio Assistants,(Poppa, Sassy Alice, Dinky Sugar) while we wait.  Things are coming right along nicely with all this help!

Make the very best of every day and count your blessings often.  ~E~

Sassy Alice

Our Sassy Alice has been with us two years yesterday.  She has grown into a big girl, 85-90 pounds.  She was only three months old when we adopted her from TAILS in Grand Saline.  She was our *Chewing Monster from Hell* until about four months ago.  She chewed up my comfy recliner, throw pillows, our towels, got things off of the cabinet in the kitchen and bathroom, pulled up my rose bushes and small trees by the roots.  Nothing was safe from her constantly roving eyes.  She has turned into a marvelous watch dog.  Any thing that moves catches her attention which is good when you live in the country.  From humans, to snakes, to scorpions, she is constantly on guard protecting us.  She is a delighteful addition to our family.

We love you Sassy Alice!
