Rather nice



These are wild morning glories. I've never seen them wrap themselves around my (broken, lol) fence, but they look really pretty when I look out my home office window. There is another wild one like this in the front of the house to. I thought at first that what I thought was a weed was actually a flower. Then I asked the youngest what kind of plant that was that had those white flowers. He tells me it's a weed and the wild morning glory has wrapped itself around it. LOL. Fine with me if it wants to choke out the weeds. Just leave my flowers alone, lol.

So today has been a really relaxing day for me. I'm all alone! I can't remember how long it's been since I've had the house all to myself. Well almost, the cat is with me. It's so nice to do what I want when I want. And the phone, it's been quiet all day.

Got up early and took the oldest to work. Hubby said he had to be done in a few hours because he had to go to work with him later today. I had forgotten that the town's farmers market was today. I knew the tag sale was at the church because I passed them setting up for it yesterday. I wanted to go because I thought I saw plants for sale there.

So when I went to get the kid, I also hit the market and sale. Got some organic spinach and swiss chard for hubby to make his saag out of. The boys like it, but I don't. I don't do cooked spinach, I only eat it raw. I also got a type of trumpet flower from the same place. They are a local farm and I've bought some of their flowers from the local nursery. The trumpet flower, which is getting ready to bloom, I'll put in a big pot and take in the house and baby all winter long. I was told it won't come back next year if I plant it outside. I never found the seeds for the trumpet plants this year.


At the sale I bought 2 house plants. One is in the aloe family and I don't know what the other one is. Neither did the lady who was selling them for someone else, lol. I bought those two because they are the only houseplants she had that I didn't have, lol.

Of course the oldest was grumping about it and actually told me that if I bought those I had to get rid of something that I already have. I see I need to get a grip on that one and his attitude. I would have taken pics and posted the "new potted babies" but the youngest has my camera so it will have to wait.

It's gotten warm here again. I felt the humidity creeping in last night when I was outside finishing the planting. Not to humid here yet, but sure is hot. Hot enough I put the air back on.

Hubby came home with a new phone for me. It's the iphone the guy he worked with got rid of because he's moving to the city. Don't know why he didn't take it with him, but he didn't. I have an ipod and a cell phone. I really don't see the need for the phone, but, whatever. So, hubby and I are going to switch phones. Only if I have service in all the places I need the service. My cell is really good with it's signal. I like the carrier. Not so crazy about this phones carrier and my service goes in and out in the house. That's really nothing new, the cell does the same thing to. If I decide to keep it then I have to take everything off the phone from the guy and put all my stuff on. And take everything off my cell and put on this phone. Vacation starts Friday so I'm in no hurry.
