My poor yard has been neglected for over a month. First it was getting ready to vend at the outdoor show, then the sale at my house, and now another sale this Friday and Saturday at my friend's. Plus life and just lots of other stuff. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. In my wildest dreams I never imagined retirement to be this busy.
Just some random pics from around the yard. Most of them taken a couple weeks ago so the plants are not looking this good 😓
Found growing from a neighbor's rotting tree stump. Google says it is a cluster of golden oyster mushrooms. The neighbor joked that someone who lives near her would eat them . . . and she hasn't seen the person for a while. I am not a 'shroom eater, but if I were, I would be hesitant to eat any not purchased from a store!
Harper is doing great and is pretty much recovered from her spay. I only have her wear the donut of shame at night. She is almost ready for adoption. It will be so hard saying good bye and happy life. A few (or more tears) will be shed.
Her tail has THE BEST curl.
In my last post, I forgot to mention that the cigar boxes were all given away at the hook in as door prizes.
Next post, I promise to share hooking . . . or lack thereof!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

I love mushrooms and would NEVER eat one growing in my yard even if it closely resembled those being sold in the stores.
Pug does have a cute curly tail. BTW, you are so busy and travel so much you don't have time to care for a fur baby full time.
My boss looks for the morel mushrooms here and uses them. I would not. Our flowers and grass are dead and brown. I have no energy to go out and water anything with my mom here. So sorry to see Harper is being adopted. I must have missed something as I thought you had adopted her. Janice
Our lawn is as brown as it is in early winter,ugh. Leaves are dropping too from no rain. Oh well, we are at the mercy of Mother Nature aren’t we? I meant to comment in your last post how much I enjoyed seeing all the cigar boxes.
I know, I have so many views and just a few comments. Its kind of weird. I think its always been like that. I love your garden its always so nice to see it. That is such a cute little tail. Don't work too hard this weekend.
Your yard has a lot more "pretty" than mine these days - even if those photos are from a few weeks ago. We went from a wet and over-saturated start/middle summer to drought. They say rain, then push it back several days and, after several days, none comes. (It POURED, however, last night when I was at the emergency vet (several miles south). The power even went out there. When I came home, though, not a drop had fallen.
I have yelled uncle and am cutting everything to the ground we are so dry and everything is dying or dead. We are on a well so I pick and choose a couple of pots to keep watering.
I thought you adopted her it will be sad to say good bye.

Harper is as cute as his tail. You are so kind and considerate, fostering the little guy. I hope the adoption goes well.
That puff ball hairy mushroom is too funny.
We are in a severe drought also here. My poor neglected flower beds got so crowded and weedy. I've divided some Irises, Day Lilies, Phlox and Sundrops and I've mulched 4 beds. I'm in the process of digging and cutting tree roots that has worked its way into the flowerbed in the corner. So far, I've cut roots that are an inch and a half and there are so many smaller one. I can only work for a few hours as get so tired working in the heat.
Hugs,
Julia
Your gardens look much better than mine, too many dry days. Harper looks like he is doing well and well adjusted. The hook in sounds like fun, even if it kept you busy.
