Some time ago a dear friend gave us some Mexican Petunia starts. I did not get them planted immediately. I did not even get them watered. Having said that, the second day I set the bucket out in the front garden in case any rain might fall. Well I guess Heavenly Father likes those little plants because the very evening I set the plants out the rain fell.
Now, finally, I have gone out to pull a few weeds along the side of the house and found a place for those Mexican Petunias. I know absolutely that they will grow and thrive and take over that part of the border by the house! I look forward to that.
Here they are! In a few months they will be very happy I believe.
The plan had been to plant them starting by the beautiful azalea plant another friend gave us years ago. As I started pulling the pricker-y vines near the azalea I nearly fell over into the weeds. Dizzy for a moment. So annoying. Probably because I had not yet eaten. Either way, I decided not to continue pulling weeds there and moved to a bit of virgin territory! If not virgin, at least with many fewer prickers. I did get a few out and put in the "Mex Pets" then returned to the house to find something to eat.
As it happens, there were dishes in the sink (you see a pattern here--lots of stuff left undone) so I washed them up. Almost all of them! The ones I did not wash were a couple of saucepans that needed a little more soaking before washing.
Finally I was ready for food...and put some eggs on to hard boil and some cauliflower in the microwave to steam. It is going to be a fun breakfast. Not one Dear One will enjoy. I expect he will eat Honeynut Cheerios. He really likes them.
