I have been on a mission this week to finish my hit 'n miss rug. I am so happy to be so close 😁 Binding is going to be a bear. I should have zig zagged where I plan to cut the linen before hooking. Note to self . . . next time do it!!!
My daffodils were so prolific this year but are sadly coming to an end. On a happy note, the lilacs are beginning to bloom, but I must have pruned my bush too late so don't have that many flowers.
The forsythia is in full bloom.
I don't remember the name of this flower, but it is spreading like crazy. As you can see, the hyacinth are done for the season.
My brother's DSO gifted me a Johnny jump up plant last fall. It sat in the unheated garage all winter since I never got around to planting. Thankfully I did not kill it and it is beginning to grow in the garden. They always remind me of my mom. It was one of her favorite plants 💖
Please think good thoughts for my brother. A little prayer would also be appreciated. He ended up at the ER last night and has been admitted for pneumonia. He has other health issues, too. Hopefully this will be a wake up call that he needs to take better care of himself!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

Your rug and your gardens look wonderful. I would've thought your bloom time would be later than mine as you're further north. How bout a visit on Tuesday?
ReplyDeleteYour Hit or Miss Rug is almost done !!! Whhoooo hooo !!!! Happy Dance time !!! Your flowers look beautiful ....hopefully after some well needed rain , and some sunshine afterwards , our gardens will pop !
ReplyDeleteHope your bother will be ok ....take care ....
Since the Jump Ups were your mom's favorite, perhaps she saved them for you. Prayers for your brother; I have a son who doesn't take very good care of himself but at least so far he has escaped Cvid when my dear DIL had it. You sure you don't want to add another row or two of hit and miss to use up the excess linen?????
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Siberian squill wildflowers. My son has many many in his front.
ReplyDeleteIf its community acquired pneumonia...you can be in great shape and fall victim to it. Best of luck to him...
ReplyDeletePrayers for your brother. WOOHOO on almost finishing your rug. Something about Spring flowers that are so pretty and yours are no exception. Janice
ReplyDeleteYour spring flowers are gorgeous, I have some daffodils and crocuses in bloom and things are just starting to pop up.
ReplyDeletePrayers for your brother. My brother-in-law just got out of the hospital with pneumonia also.
That's my girl, keep up the good work and finish up that Hit and Miss.
Hugs, Julia
Definitely prayers for your brother. Pneumonia is nothing to mess with. Your forsythia is just a glorious cloud of yellow! I think those blue flowers might be Scilla. But maybe not.
ReplyDeleteYour garden looks wonderful ... and is way ahead of mine in bloom time. Sending positive thoughts for your brother.
ReplyDeleteYour hooking is always so neat!! Your rug looks great and I am sure that your worms are greatly depleted 😜. Down here our Johnny jump ups fade away as the weather gets warm. I have a big pot full that have been glorious, but the heat is starting to make them leggy and faded. Prayers for your brother.

ReplyDeleteYour garden is fabulous!! My lilacs started blooming last month, but I don't have any purple. I may need to put that on my garden wish list. I have some Johnny jump-ups that my neighbor gave me last fall. The plants made it through the winter and the dogs. LOL They are just so darn cute. Your rug is beautiful. Love, love, love. I will keep your brother on my heart. Take care.
