Hello Sunshine,that is interesting about one of your apple tree\'s that did not yield any apples last season,so your Dad pruned it,it looks lush with apples now. Lovely. Apples are one of my favorite fruits to eat. Your garden looks grand,and i think your going to have a good yield this harvest. Glad you all had fun at the casino and BBQ. Glad your Mom\'s blood tests came back good. Enjoy your evening my friend. Much Blessings Greenies

Love the video ! That looks like some real rich black soil you have there.In our area the dirt is mostly red mud,you are blessed to have that wonderful soil there.Everything looks beautiful.I look forward to seeing it all grow ! I went to Walmart today.I got some much needed shoes for summer and some dog food and some medicines I needed. It always makes me feel better to get out of the house some. You did so good talking on that video, I can\'t talk that good.You sounded professional there.Great narration ! I hope you have a lot of fun in the pool and garden and cooking out.Summer is my favorite season.Take care.Love to you & your wonderful family. Positive energy from me to you all. God Bless !

Hi Chris! nice to hear about your wonderful Sweet Treats Tuesday!!! I\'m so glad to hear you had a fun outing, and about the plantings in your garden :) Everything is looking great, coming up strong, good job! That was really great posting that video :) You amaze and inspire us! That is so wonderful, to hear the birds singing, and feel the sun shining, the days are getting warmer and brighter :) What a beautiful time of year! I hope and pray for continued health, with your mom, and your family. I am glad that you are sounding good, and happy. It is going to be really warm here today, we have bright sunshine, and a lot of humidity here, and maybe some thunderstorms later on in the day, a lot different from yesterday. It looks very summery out. I think the lawn needs to be cut again, the grass is getting very long. I bought some more Mammoth sunflower seeds. I am hoping to get those planted, in the next week or so. I am not feeling rushed. Last year they bloomed so quickly, I thought, next year, I will plant a few at a time, and that way they will take turns flowering. That way I can enjoy them longer, like you do. Last summer they all bloomed at the same time and then they were all done at the same time, and it was quite early, too, if I remember. There are still a lot of weeds to be pulled in the garden area. You know how it is, with the weeds. I hope and pray that you all continue to have a very nice week :) with love and hugs, your friend, Carolyn XXOO
