Back to Ordinary Gardening and Reading

 I am thrilled with the first of these flowering. There was a little thrip damage on the bottom flower ( so I pulled it off ) but still lovely. I have 6 of these green Gladioli dotted along a narrow bed against a retaining wall out the side of the house. Also there are other flowers in lemon, yellow, blue, white and orange.

 I was weeding along this garden yesterday and things are really struggling with the dry even tho I have been watering them. I can't remember when we had any meaningful rain.

 Over our long anniversary weekend we did get to go to the Mt. Lioness's Used book sale.
 14 adult paperbacks ,4 kids books and a jigsaw for $27. ( that's not even the price of one new paperback.) Amazing value. There will be another Rotary book sale at Easter so this might last us till then.

  1. I love your gladdi. Ours won’t flower this year as it is so very dry. Hopefully they will come back better next year. Aren’t book fairs the best way to find books. We really can’t justify the expense of a new novel when we can enjoy the hunt at book fairs op shops and the like. Enjoy your haul.

  2. Wow, I've never seen a mangrove. I can see why writers used to think of them as sinister.

  3. Look at the way my buddy Wesley Virgin's autobiography begins in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL video.

    Wesley was in the military-and soon after leaving-he revealed hidden, "MIND CONTROL" secrets that the government and others used to get everything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the EXACT same secrets many celebrities (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and top business people used to become rich and famous.

    You've heard that you only use 10% of your brain.

    That's because the majority of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Perhaps this thought has even occurred INSIDE OF YOUR own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain about seven years back, while driving an unregistered, beat-up bucket of a car with a suspended license and with $3.20 on his bank card.

    "I'm absolutely fed up with living check to check! When will I finally succeed?"

    You took part in those thoughts, ain't it right?

    Your very own success story is waiting to start. You need to start believing in YOURSELF.
