A little of this, a little of that......

These are purple finches, aren't they lovely? This is the view when I look up from my computer. I get to see lots of beautiful birds...all year long...I love it!
Here is my beautiful petunia I kept inside this winter and it has bloomed for my throughout the colder months. In another week or two I think I will let it go outside for the summer and get more green and robust hopefully before I bring in back in before the first frost. Over my kitchen sink.

I cannot tell if I look smaller in this photo, but I have lost almost 60# and those pants are a 2X vs the 4X I was wearing prior to surgery. Same with shirts...from 4X to 2X and the 2Xs are getting pretty baggy. In the background to the right, is our rock garden. Also where I have my hollyhocks and some lupines. Cannot wait for them to bloom. They didn't bloom last year, just grew, this year I start getting the flowers. Yipee! Hope it is a little nicer tomarrow so we can work in the backyard. Need to get the bunny fence up before we can plant garden. Bunny fence already around the blueberries.

Congrats on the 60 pound loss! Good for you.

Went to Georgia's memorial today and sat with the No Nene's. She will be missed.
