Everything and anything!

Ahh, the procrastinator's curse--having to catch up on all the things that were put off!

The little seeds featured in my last post are now fairly decent sprouts, I can't wait for them to start flowering!

I also tore out my front "garden"--for years I have seen the apartment that I now live in and thought "That place looks so seedy! Can you say 'crack house'?" The front was FULL of weeds. Weeds up to your waist. Horrible dead vines full of spiders. There probably was a witch living in there somewhere, or ought to have been. So, with the help of my boyfriend, we ripped all those weeds and vines out and discovered that, once upon a time, someone took the time to make it a nice garden. The rocks from the rock border were still there, so we recreated it. Then I planted most of the seeds I had in the garden, with my sunflowers right beside the big ugle telephone pole in the middle, so there's something for them to lean on. It looks much better, and not so much like a "crack house".

For Mother's Day, my mom came up here to our place. It was a nice girls' weekend, with my two sisters and my mom! We hit the Farmers' Market, which is finally starting to heat up with the warmer weather, and got some beautiful family pictures done. Besides getting the pictures, I also made her some presents: crocheted washcloths, a button bracelet with matching earrings and a bookmark.

For some reason my blog won't accept any pictures of the washcloths and bookmark, though, so the bracelet is going to have to do.

Thanks for reading, and hope all the moms out there had a great mother's day!
