I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden.....

Our veggie garden is growing and I finally have flowers again!!! I planted a few potted flowers the brighten up the front door. But, my pride and joy is the start of my rose garden!! It was my Mother's Day gift, I guess for myself...I bought them, got all the things I needed to plant them correctly, dug the holes and put those little plants in the ground myself....I have a great sense of satisfaction about that! I plan to add some cuttings from my great grandmother's roses this fall.

House Updates

A lot is happening, FINALLY, at our place. The last few days have been VERY productive!! YAY!! It's nice to see progress! Dennis and my Dad knocked out a bunch of stuff on Saturday. Dennis took today to work on the laminate flooring. In fact, some of the pictures of the laminate were taken two different times today, so you can see they got a lot of it done. They still have the remaining parts of the bedrooms and the transition pieces to do. The picture of the tile was taken this morning before it had grout, too. They ran out of grout, so they'll finish that tomorrow and the trimwork will start tomorrow as well. Now, if we can just get it all to fall into place that all the people can get out to do their jobs to finish, preferably THIS WEEK! I'm not pushing my luck, though. I'm planning to do clean up this weekend, probably not going to be ready to move in just yet. But, we're getting very close now!
