I dont know about all of you guys but Spring around here has been Stormy! Yesterday was Stormy off and on all afternoon therefore I didnt bother even trying to log on and post here. We had severe and non severe thunderstorms coming through and just when we thought we were in the clear another one would start up, AARGH! Fortunately no Tornado Warnings occured here and we didnt have to worry about putting four uncooperative cats and ourselves in the tiny shelter type spot we have. Sannybug has decided she doesnt like storms anymore and has taken to hiding from them in the spot under the stairs so I guess it woulda been 3 uncooperative kitties since the 4th was already there LOL!
Yesterday Brian and I met my mom, grandma and uncle at Shoneys in Neosho for lunch and then went grocery+ shopping. We did manage to get some of the groceries we were in need of as well as a few of the nonfood items we went after as well as 4 new Creeping Phlox Plants, some Peony Roots, Gladiolus Corms, and Dahlia Tubers to plant as well. The Irises are really starting to take off and we have about oh 30 or so new buds coming up throughout all the beds (pics taken but not uploaded yet). The Lilacs have dropped ther first blossoms but have lots more coming up so all my flowers are doing well despite all the wet weather. I will be planting the Glads after the weather clears a bit so that they dont drown like they did last year (out of 40 planted only 3 survived the April freeze and subsequent rains) they will most likely be planted where the corms will be protected by the Iris plants and not end up getting drenched.
In knitting news I have gotten one of the Soldier Socks about halfway down the foot and am working on the other one to get it caught up and hope to have them finished this weekend!!!! Thats all goin on knitting wise, I will be working on my other WIPs and Unstarted next ups (3pr Fuzzy Feet form Knitty) as soon as they are finished. I will be posting project pics of the BBS as soon as they are both the same length again, hopefully outside along with the Nutkins.
Thats all for today. Have Nice Day Everybody!!
I miss having a garden, we have a balcony that I fill up with plants. I look forward to seeing the photos.
