Garden news

Hubby and I are still here, and so far, in good health.   I ONLY go out once a week for shopping and our daughter makes COSTCO runs for us when she goes, so there isn't much reason to go out.   We do pickup from WalMart, but I do run over to Whole Foods about once a week for fresh produce.   That's IT.   Oh, and I DID drive my car through the car wash the other day when I had to pick up an order from Home Depot for cord for my weeder.

I'm back to making journals.   I had to take a break from making masks because my carpel tunnel syndrome on my right wrist flared up... BADLY...and I had to take 10 days off.   Now my masks are just sitting in my shop, so I switched over to making journals again.   I finished two of them and I'm almost done with another one.   You can see them here:   https://www.etsy.com/shop/DesertsandBeyond?ref=pr_shop_more

My front and back yard gardens, however, are THRIVING!   I have tons of hollyhocks out front and patches of them and sunflowers in the back yard.   I've also planted some bush beans (2 varieties) as well as zucchini and yellow squash.   All are doing well.   I go out and do my "chores" every morning for about 20-30 minutes, so I'm getting some exercise and vitamin D! 

The grandkids and mommie stopped by the other day and we all social distanced on the front porch.   The kids ran around with my metal watering can and watered everything.   They called my front yard.... a "JUNGLE" and went off exploring!   It was nice to see them.

So, we just keep puttering along, one day at a time.

Here are some recent photos for you to enjoy!   STAY HEALTHY!

 They are all about 3" tall now, very full.

The hummingbirds LOVE this!
