Purple Clover and My Yard

Grass at work has not had its first cutting
for the year yet. I noticed the
clover on the side of the parking
lot....yep, out I jumped to snap
these two pics!
 
 
Love this get down on the ground view!

 
Hosta is peeking out more and more
each day.

 
The story of this hosta is....The woman who used to
watch my kids, Pat, gave me a bunch of this from
her yard. I had it planted at my old home
and dug some up to bring with me when I
moved to this house 23 years ago. I have divided
it many times to put more around the yard and
to give away.
 
The side of the shed. Through the years this
area has had a few different looks.
Timbers and flowerbeds, bushes (one
still standing)....and other looks....
But I have plans for it this yr. First hint,
the bush is being moved!!

 
The old oak tree! LOL....actually
not that old, I planted it a few yrs after
 moved in. I find it funny that it does not
lose it's leaves in the fall, they
turn brown and leave in the spring.
Took this Wed. night, planning on taking
one every so often to see the change as
it drops it's leaves.

 
Love these border rocks....
Put these around my Crape Myrtle.
I planeted this bush the fall of
2013. Last yr it came up from the bottom...
this year, I have yet to see any signs of
it. I really hope it made it cause
this is the deep red one I always wanted.
 

 
Caleb and I spent a day cutting back
honeysuckle bushes from the side of the
creek on my side.....so nice to look out
and see the creek!
Love the moss growing on the rock.

 
Thanks for stopping in,

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Hot Water Heater Mishaps

Image
 As I stated the hot water heater sprung a leak, from the bottom.  My younger brother came to help  with the issue. Problem, the  value at the bottom where you screw in  the hose to drain the tank, was  all clogged up.  It sets so close to the bottom  that it is hard to slip a  bucket under to catch water if we were to get the clog undone. There was no moving it till water was drained off the tank. We opened the top value, and leaned it over to drain into buckets. I have a great big  plastic tub, like this one. We filled it by leaning the  hot water heater over. Finally got enough off to be able to slid onto the two wheeler  and move out of the garage. Once we had it there,  we lowered it to the ground and let it finish with the drain. Mark went to Lowes and got another one, installed it and  had me up and running. The damage had been done though. With the unit on the  other side of the BR, water came under the wall and flooded the BR,  and the carpet in the den.  Yes, the same two roo
