SLACKER

I have really been slack about getting on here. I hope to do better. I now have my chickens and loving every minute I spend time with them....anxious for spring to see the robin's egg blue ones my Ameraucana's will lay.

PLEASE VISIT MY WATTPAD PAGE AND READ ALONG AS I WRITE MY BOOK.

The Ladies

Finally got some laying hen. Will post pictures later on. Got 4 hens, and two chicks that are in the house in a small pen...I'll sure be glad when they're old enough to go out...haaa

CHICKENS, ANYONE???

I have built a chicken pen, coop and two laying boxes. Now I'm ready for the laying hens. I want to start out with young pullets. any ideas would be appreciated....thanks

busy as a bee

speaking of bees, they're buzzing around now that the flowers are blooming, and soon my garden will be full, I'm sure. My son-in-law has his new hives up and getting ready to release his honey bees. I'm excited...I love honey.

My best friend made this birdhouse for me...and you will also see my bottle tree made from an old cedar tree that I cut the limbs to size, buried, and put all the old vintage bottles I've found on.

I've been so busy this spring, as it came so early here in SC. I now have "no" fingernails and what little I do has dirt under them....I just can't bring myself to wear gloves. Glad I keep a nice bottle of Burts Bee's handy for nighttime.  Here are some of the "goings on" around my place this spring...enjoy...hugs, noah

 Now, you may laugh.....I am so bad on tools...yes, I broke the one "leg/arm" off this post hold digger and rather than junk it, I used it as a "gazing ball"(even tho it's not a "gazing" ball) holder...I think it's kinda cute...especially when my grass gets green and the flowers come up around it and bloom.

 My Lady Banks rose is doing just fine this year....

 Pretty in pink....

 My lilacs had much bigger blooms last year, but I forgot to fertilize them in the fall. The Bible tells us that Heaven will be like nothing we can imagine, but I think lilacs smell as close to Heaven as I can imagine....

 and this beautiful azalea has had a number of trimmings over the years...wonder how large it would have been by now if I hadn't????

 just a lavender pretty.....

 I rescued this snowball bush after it had been bush hogged down. I was so angry that someone would do that, but I found this one little piece that still had roots and alas, after babying it, this is the 3rd year and now it's giving me blooms....

 Love my weather vanes...have 3 now and will keep collecting.....

 another of my woods beauties....

 Wish this would stay in bloom all summer. It smells good and is just lovely....I believe it's a Honeysuckle tree.

some pretty things

for my great granddaughter

Twas her very first birthday.....

Dust???? What's that?

which I should be doing on this very rainy day in SC.  Just a few I need to do.....

Ready for some homemade goodies..DIY stuff...

Hi all....been slack for a bit....now I'm on to some other projects. Really enjoy seeing each and every post on my reading list.....have a wonderful day...

The Old Saw

I just painted this old saw for a friend of him and his deceased brother's hunting camp site.
