Flowers of Spring 2011

For those of you who read my blog think I have probably disappeared

off the face of the earth.

Just busy with life all the time…plus I am older and it takes longer to get things done.

 

I am still putter around with my

flowers…real dry here…so am constantly watering them.

 

Be prepared as there are lots of pictures. If you were here I

would offer you something to drink and cookies.

There still more areas I did not show.

However, you can get  an idea as to how the

Watkins flowers look this year.

Oh my goodness! Your flowers are gorgeous! I loved seeing them. I know what you mean about being so busy. And I totally understand about being older. I think I get slower every day. I wake up and have so many things on my to do list and if I get 3 things done I am happy! lol

Your flowers are looking lovely Amelia. Up until this week I've been having to water every day too, but this week we've had downpour after downpour, which is very welcome.

Wow your flowers look great! We've gotten some good rain over the last few days. Have you?

Oh, my goodness, you do have a lot of plants to water. They all look just beautiful, too.

We, too, are in a deep, severe drought. It is very serious here as the city of Lubbock and surrounding areas are running out of water. They are working day and night on pipelines, bringing water from lakes...but...HELLO...the lakes are drying up because of no rain.
We just keep praying for the rains to fall...and I know they will. God is good. It's just that I want it right now and it must not be the right time or HE would send it RIGHT NOW. We wait...and pray.
Now, go water those beautiful plants and flowers. :))
hugs, bj

Such delightful flowers. The pink lilies are beautiful. A cold drink would be just the thing. The heat here has just been sweltering. Glad to have caught up w/you.
