Rain, Mowing, Day Lilies, Lily, Suncatchers

 

Hello,

well, its been raining here, off and on, equal

amounts every day since Tuesday,

today is Sunday, and according to the weather

app that comes on iphones, we will still 

be getting rain till next Sunday.

I did not mow before the rain, and that

was going on two weeks. In need of some

sprinkles from there guy, my yard had

developed some, several good size

dirt spots. So, thoughts were, cut

after the rain. 

haha,

at this rate, I will need to bushhog

my yard when the rain stops!

Although, I have done some walk abouts,

even a little work in the yard between

rains, and into rains, until I can't

do anymore. 

My neighbor came over the other

day and we stood out in the 

rain talking.

I love a good steady, not

shivering cold rain.

Used to love taking walks

in them.

But look what has opened since

the rain started.

Although I did not carry my 

camera with me yesterday when I 

did a walk about, I have to 

say, rain makes a difference.

Such a big difference in plants

as opposed to watering them on 

your own.

Plants love that rain water.

I say that to tell you that

the wildflower bed has really

spunk to life. I even have the 

Whimsical Woman revamped to 

put out there. I kept her on the 

porch all winter and one of 

those really rainy days she 

got knocked over, dislocating her

arms, so I needed to give

her some love.

When I was at GW last week,

picking out Pixie's outfit, I bought

The Whimsical Woman a fuller

skirt which would help cover

her tripod legs that spread out,

but, I like it so much, I am 

keeping it to cover my banged up,

bruised up and battered up legs!

Trying to decide on what will get 

done today. I am still on the daybed at 11:41am,

and Lily is chilling beside me.

Misty is inside..

Trying to decide about going to Lowes

for lumber and plywood. 

I did not pay extra for a loft 

in the craft cave so I am thinking

of throwing one up.

I want to use that for storing of craft

items made and ready for sale, shows or

gifts. 

I went out to the craft cave

yesterday to locate my

tumbler and went through every

thing (I think) out there to not

locate it. So, a loft, things out of

the way and me getting off my rear

and organizing it is a must and soon.

Should have done it already.

Lazy.

Yesterday while drinking coffee, I 

told myself several times to go take

my stay awake meds. Then before I knew

it, I laid over for a nap. Waking here and 

there and telling myself, I think I 

took that pill, but for sure thinking

I did not, cause I slept the day away.

ALL DAY.

I have taken it this morn, I told myself

I was taking it, out loud to myself and the girls

that  I was taking

so, I would remember.

When I worked I had panic attacks

on my way to work thinking I did 

not turn the curling iron, or the iron, 

or the stove off, making me have

to go back and check. I found if

I told myself out loud that I did 

it, then I would remember.

Cause you know, even though I 

said it for them to hear it, 

the girls will not remind me!!

Anyway, guess I need to go back 

to the pill box thing and start 

using them again.

Now I know this will probably get the 

better of Darla but I like

chimes, suncatchers and ribbons

blowing in the breeze.

Last week or so I made this

suncatcher.

My SIL, and where they got them,

I have no clue, gave me a bunch of 

those iron o's at the top of 

this one.

I have been springs so I 

combined both of the rust on these

pieces to make the suncatcher.

Those rounds and some spike looking

things that Lori gave me are

parts to an old iron fence. 

Welding came to her and 

Ray's mind so they gave me that

stuff. And of course I think everyone

knows I will take anything.

This next one was inspired by the 

chicken wire suncatchers.

I love these and have wanted

to make one but have not done so

yet. With that being said, I had

a necklace I put away for future 

craft projects and noticed it have

perfect rings within rings that 

would work the same as chicken 

wire.

The biggest problem with me,

I can't keep everything I 

make, yet I want to.

haha
