Morning Civatar, and welcome to a new week ahead, and a new Music Monday.
I came across this old classic and it just felt like the right fit to get one in the mood for this upcoming week. It promises to be a hot and humid one across much of the country and it’s songs like this one that I need to get me motivated to get started on a project, get myself moving, and just get out the door to face the day.

Morning Bloggers, here we are with the first Monday on the first day of the month of June. It promises to be a hot one here, much too early for that nonsense when I have so much to do outside. The heat isn’t as bad as the humidity that goes along with it. All of the wind I complained about earlier this spring has seemed to disappear and now we have been having calm and muggy days. Perfect for the mosquitos, not for me!
I chose this song just to get some pep into my step today. I need some motivation to get moving. I hope it motivates you too!

A lazy Sunday here, bit too wet to do much and after all it is Sunday so it’s been a day of rest. I did go out this afternoon and grabbed a few snaps. I didn’t grab any pics of the peonies and iris still blooming, they have been a bit damaged from all of the rain and are done with their big flush for the year.
Just a couple of hummer pics and a couple of blooms, along with pics of one of my planters which I have several planted up with the same plants around the patio, some moss rose which I haven’t grown in years, (but love the stuff and how hardy it is with the heat), a baby praying mantis on a spirea bush, and lastly a clematis.
I have also included two pics of work to do yet…. raspberries to plant yet and all of the hosta left over from dividing and replanting. The extras will go on the East side of the garage and are waiting until I get some siding replaced first so they don’t get trampled. A gardener’s work is never done!
Happy Gardening!
I chose this old classic for today’s Music Monday. A lot of good song choices out there for Memorial Day. It was hard to just pick one. Whatever you do today, whether picking a song, decorating a grave, or spending time with family, remember those who helped fight for that freedom to do so.
Have a safe Memorial Day!
Morning Bloggers! For today’s Music Monday I chose this song because it is such an upbeat song and it helps to chase those doldrums away. I am sure you have heard snippets of it from either a commercial, movie, or video short. So, I figured it would be nice to post the whole song in case you have ever heard of it before but never knew really knew who sang it. It is sure to run thru your head today after hearing it.

I chose this old classic not only for the music but for the video itself. Love seeing all of those retro shows from back in the day!

Just a few pics, things are in a bit of a lull, lots of buds but the cooler temps are making them take their time about opening. Earlier flowers like phlox, bleeding hearts, tulips, daffs, early iris etc. are over with and I didn’t grab much if any pics at the time.
Lots of blues and purples at the moment, but then those are some of my favorite colors and I have tons of different shades of them in iris. We could use some rain though, the ground is getting so hard.
And lastly a pic of one of my new raised beds with strawberries planted. They are just starting to get settled in and I am hoping for an easier way to manage them as they take off with runners.
In case you are wondering, the sticks are to keep any feral cats and other animals from jumping up and digging in the bed. Fingers crossed that it works!
Have a good week ahead!
It’s the first Monday for May and I chose this old classic that showed up on my Youtube feed. At first glance, one doesn’t really recognize the singer, but click to listen to the song and the voice is unmistakeable!

Have a good week bloggers, I am going to try and be out in the garden if the weather and my muscles cooperate!
Here we are on the last Monday of the Month. Hard to believe May is right around the corner with a ton of spring things needing to be done. Hopefully the upcoming week will be a lot drier so I can get out there to get more accomplished.
This song popped up in my Youtube feed and instantly had me humming along. I hope it does for you too. Have a favorite tune? Feel free to post it for today!

Morning Bloggers, I am hoping to get outside this afternoon and dig and move one iris bed if it’s not too wet or muddy or cold. Would be nice if the weather would cooperate but we shall see what the day brings.
I came across this old classic from the 80’s and decided to post it for today’s Music Monday. Music does tend to bring back a lot of memories of people, places, and more importantly time. The older you get, the quicker it seems to go.
