The picture on the left was taken in the Fireside Room where we meet after church for coffee and munchies.
I took a few pictures of my flowers today. The lilac bush is doing so much better in the back yard. The spot where it was before has hardpan and lilacs need good drainage.
Maybe I have too many Irises.

Hello Darkness has quite a few buds on it; can't wait til they open up so I can get a good picture of it.
I still have the 15 Gerbera daisies to plant. Maybe tomorrow. I've been saying that for quite some time now. One of these days it's really going to happen.
I keep forgetting that I have a flat of flowering strawberries to plant around the mailbox also. There are lots of weeds to pull. (Or dig out with a shovel.) So much to do. Good thing I love being out in the yard. Don't like to work too hard though, just piddle around. Guess that's why it takes so long to get anything done. It's easier on my arthritis that way. My knee doctor said don't overdo; so I'm taking his advice.

What a lovely post. You sound just like my Mother! She has always loved her garden but after going to the Manhattan knee doctor she realized she has arthritis in her knees as well. She is doing the best she can to keep herself pain free while keeping her garden green. Thanks so much for your post.
I had one knee replacement. I can't get on my knees to pull weeds, but still it was well worth it. Now it's time to prune the roses. I only have 12 now, thank goodness.
Thanks for the nice comment.
