Thanks Eve For The Hot Flashes!!

Okay........this is exactly what a hot flash looks like. They have been running through my body JUST LIKE THIS!! I would like to give my very own personal thank you to Eve for this rubbish merely because I'm not entirely sure who else to blame. I would like to know what I've ever done to you? Thanks gal!!


Between hot flashes, I've been working on my gardens and have to show you this Gladiola be-yoot that is blooming in one of my rock gardens...........


A few snapshots from my organic garden. I make my own organic insect repellent to keep those little suckers off my veggies.........

My eight gi-normous blueberry bushes are chock full of blueberries this year.......


My eggplant are full of blooms that will soon produce..........


My yellow Heirloom cherry tomatoes have millions of tomatoes on them (okay........maybe not millions.....but thousands.......)


I have loads of squash already...........


I'm off to weed my garden. Helps the hot flashes you know? I am determined to get the rest of those suckers gone today so that more can take their place. Still, I find gardening very therapeutic and soothing. Doesn't hurt that I sell my veggies either. That's always good incentive, lol.

Please click on "The Daily Puppy"!!

Have a beautiful Monday and do something that makes you smile today.

"Friday Shoot-Outs" Home & Garden Edition

"The difficulties in my path shall not deter my ambition" ~ A sign I saw in St. Lucia





Boy, this week I feel like we should all have our own special episode on HGTV. The amazing gigi @ afterthoughts picked this weeks subject and what a fantastic choice she made. I love gardens of all kinds and gardening is one of my passions. In Newnan, Georgia we have some amazing gardener's is our midst. Nothing gets you closer to God than digging in the earth and then watching the splendor and fruits of your loving labor unfold before your very eyes. I hope you enjoy our gardens theme as much as I enjoyed taking these snaps.

You've got your veggie gardens. A couple of these are snaps from my very own organic garden.....a couple of them aren't lol...........






You've got your rock gardens. I especially love the little rock garden with the plaque dedicated to "The Victims and Heroes of 9/11 and The Everyday Heroes Among Us". I'm proud to say that I took that at an elementary school near me where I know most of those big hearted kiddos. I also really like the little garden made of handmade mosaic stepping stones........





Then you've got your flower gardens. I so love flowers. Some of these shots are from my very own flower gardens. Then another couple come from one of my best girlfriend's yard. There are 2 from another friend's who is a Master Gardener. I am mesmerized by flower gardens and could spend hours working in mine and hours looking at others. Thenk you gigi for choosing this week's subject..........it's one dear to my heart...........













Thanks so much for visiting with me today!! My gal Patty chose Science Girl's name out of the hat to choose next week's subject......I can't wait for that one, but please girl don't choose chromosomes or isotopes or cells, lol.

Hope everyone has a joyful EXTREME weekend.
