These are "Heavenly blue" morning glories. I bought a packet of seeds, very excited about having them climb the fence behind my garden. About two weeks later, I am so excited to see seedlings! A week later I went out to water, and the leaves are gone. Something is eating the darn leaves. So I tried again, but had the same result, so apparently I was supplying something with a snack! I have clear plastic cups I'm going to put over the new seeds I planting tomorrow. The curious thing is there are small basil plants, and small carrot tops, but those are fine. I can't figure out what's eating them, but I'm beginning to wonder if it's pill bugs. I hope the cups work.
There is really not much going on ~ we get up and take the dogs out around 7:15-7:30 for a 2-3 mile walk, then I work out in the garden for awhile. Laundry. Dinner. Embroidery or quilting, depending on how I feel about either one. The one thing I have to force myself to do is clean house. Yesterday I dusted, vacuumed and mopped the downstairs, and wasn't worth anything after that. I used to do a whole lot more in one day! Now, I parcel it out. Once upon a time I tried a cleaning service, but I was disappointed that they didn't do everything I normally do ~ like catch the baseboards with the vacuum, clean well around the toilet....things like that. So, why spend the money if my standards are so nick picky? It is not cheap having a service like that, so I'll save that money for something else ~ and there are always many "something else's", haha.
Happy Memorial Day to all our veterans and service members......We remember 💗
If you have Netflix, check out the documentary on Lincoln. It is so well done. I wish we had a president with his honesty and dedication to the well being of the citizens of this country right now ~ when apparently it is most needed.
Love, 365
