5:30 a.m...and Vinca's

SWEET Vinca's

they remind me of a new born baby

Vinca's love sunlight

they are a hardy dainty cottage flower.

THIS is Vinca's planted

I will share this place early this week

It reminds me of Hansel and Gretels house.

2nd clue: it's in Farmington

Our white picket fence prop is down and for sale:

$50.00

Just a bed of roses  paper bag holder Headboard display selling:

$85.00

5:30 a.m. I poke snoring husband to get up for the newspaper for yard sales...He sleeps through proding.

zzzzzzzz  zzzzzzz  zzzzzzz

 I get up and wander through the yard,  a beautiful morning and to be honest I hadn't done ANY yard browsing this year.

I start to pull weeds, here and there in bathrobe, soon its an hour.

I crawl back into bed.

it hurts.

We sleep in until 9:00 a.m.

(unheard of for us two.)

I tell Mr. Roses, my YOU have been VERY busy outside, but... I helped you!

Smile on my face.

He arose and off to one yard sale we went:

If you think you know someone controlling and bossy ...if it's not THIS LADY, then

YOU HAVEN'T

We thought we'd met every kind of personality...

WE HADN'T

Arriving home I started thinking I must venture out soon to find WHITE PETUNIA'S

because... I saw them in a window display

also pink VINCA'S along a path.

Obsessed now

For 6 hours I planted 2  1/2 flats and re/arranged

garden furniture in our "way to big" of yard for "our age."

filled 3 wheelbarrows.

At 6:00 p.m.

showered. TOOK PILLS. slept hard.

Mr. Roses is required at his employement on holidays...I am not and because Lisa of http://www.blueandshoe.blogspot.com/ SAYS I HAVE DEEP POCKETS

being shopowner

I can stay home whenever I want.

I should not be left unattended, because I am like my father, once I get going, it's not easy to get us to stop.

called...NO sense.

Now in pain AND rain pouring

on my fragile baby like Vinca's and

purity white petunia's.

9:30 p.m. Mr. roses arrives home

I share the good news.

He seriously wants to take a flashlight out in the pouring rain.

Because you see...He is like the controlling

yard sale lady, he thinks he owns

our yard. He asked IF I WATERED the new plants.

I stated: did I not feed and raise our 4 babies and insist we rode up to see new 3 week grandson to FEED him this morning.

(Oh ye of little faith and confidence)

WEll...

I have been known to plant my flowers

and then let them tend themselves.

Like the sign says:

Work Hard

and be nice!

Sunday morning update:

still raining cats and dogs, non-stop.

My vinca's...

so worried, sleeping husband must get-up

and cover them or they will drowned.

This rain is scaring me

How about you?
