indoor plantings

they gather in the trees now

each time I go out the front door

which today will be zero times

as it is raining and will continue to do all day long

flash flood and flood warnings up all over

so it will be another day spent inside

the birds are all so busy these days

it's nest building season around here

and they are busy busy busy

while I was talking on the phone yesterday

I saw, but wasn't able to catch them

two hawks up in a tree across the road

either courting

or feeding a baby

couldn't figure it out

wings spread as they balanced on the limbs

looking almost like high wire walkers

and this "sammy"

he's in big trouble

he had the whole of the new seed I put down to choose from

and he chose to dig in the pots and nearly broke them all

so he's on the no feed list

!!!!

or maybe I'll give him clean up duty

because the big clean up is due

so hopefully after the rain

I'll do some of that

look at my new little garden

indoor style

until the weather sorts itself out and it can go out

so

sammy can dig in it and break it

see I plan ahead!!!!

the husband likes little cacti

so we bought some

!!!

and I potted them

this one is called

baby toes

and it has a sun roof on top of each

"leaf"

to let the light in

ain't nature wonderful

this one has flowers and made it home without one falling off

so pretty

this is my homegrown one

that I bought last summer and it bloomed a few weeks ago

and as you can see

it still is

this one reminds me of my favourite stitches

bobbles

knitted or crocheted

!!!!!

and I love the colour

shall I pass the gravy?

!!!

I never use this for what it was made for

so in went a

hyacinth bulb

blue and hopefully fragrant

and another in a very old cup someone gave me many years ago

can't imagine using it to actually drink from

I plan on getting some moss from outside to cover the rather ugle soil

but

it's raining so I'll have to wait

did I mention

it's raining

 the hope of things to come

.....

things aren't the way they should be here on blogger

don't know what happened or what they are doing

but I hope it's fixed soon coz it's annoying the way it is

 see y'all later
