Forgotten Dreams
My first Day Lily has bloomed. They are called Forgotten Dreams. I water them each morning. I think they are really pretty.

Don't cheat, now, don't search google! :-).

Well, Well
I am trying to get my lifetime teaching license and the FBI returned my fingerprint card. My prints are worn off. I am trying again, but what about a life of crime? Is it too late for that?
The 1940 census has revealed that the Coal Miner's daughter was 16 when she married and she made up the story about being 13. There will be other things revealed in that document and I sure will be glad when we have an index to it.
I only have one week left in the work force. Yes, I am sad about leaving a school where I have 'lived' 39 years, but other doors open. Last night I walked around in the Meadow and thought how I had not even really got to enjoy living here in my little garden of Eden...
Going to the grocery. Siggie is staying tonight with us. Rest of the family are on a soccer weekend at Fayetteville.

Pond Bank Mower
Larry bought this DR Brush Mower off of Craig's List. One thing we wanted it for was to mow the pond bank. I think I can mow next to the fence too. It pulls itself, but I will not be able to mow the bank. Came home today and Larry had it done. The pond is so beautiful with a clean bank! Larry does all sorts of things around our place everyday. I come home often to a 'nice' surprise! This is a sweet one!

Monday, Monday
I am home today. Laura is having a little surgery to rid herself of the fibroid tumors that all the sisters have. Hopefully, this will keep her from having the big surgery we all had to have.
I had all 3 girls overnight. Ingrid and Sigrid are staying home today, but Astrid had to be at school at 7 this morn for volleyball practice. Siggie and Ingie are still asleep. This will be my last day to miss work.
I am thinking once I retire...I probably will not know Monday from Friday...just another day to enjoy.
Siggie told her school that I was going to home school her next year. We have talked about it. Me in jest but I guess she thought it was a good idea. She is a pretty smart girl. She missed most of her subtraction problems...so she told her Mom that she had a surprise in her book bag and there was no need to look in there. Mom looked so Siggie told her she had a paper in there with a lot of RED marks and she should be proud of the paper because Siggie said she thought the boy across the aisle was trying to copy so she missed them ALL on purpose. Mom did not fall for the story.

Cultivision
This is one of Larry's Farmall Cub tractors. He will get better and better at plowing with it. Alot easier than a tiller throwing you around.

Hazel's Daughter
Hazel Bates' daughter is not well. She contacted me about her mother's papers.
She wants me to have at least part of her mother's work. What an honor! I gladly
accepted. I do not think there are things in the work that we do not know, but still
I will be glad to see what she sends me.

What's Happening!! Just for Helen!
Here's some pictures around the place! We only got a sprinkle today and need a rain!
The top is my Day Lily garden--Forgotten Dreams--is what they are called.Here are my two hanging baskets....did not get them from the bottom of the cave. One is that flowering moss Momma liked and the other is impatients.
This is a Muscadine that I started last year in my flower garden and it is doing good about ready to set out where and add a trellis. The flags mark my gourds but I guess it is not hot enough for them.
Here is the first of the drip system. The row is tomatoes and I just put them out this weekend. I planted Park's Whoppers, Beef Masters, Celebrity, Rutgers, Mar-globes, and about 5 that came up volunteer in my garden.
Boston Ferns that I bought this weekend.
Begonias.
Here are the 4 o'clock--Fleta says they are ugly.
I call this my Grandma Gaddy garden and she grew these on Walnut St. in Harrison, AR. Someone I know lives on Walnut St. today.
This is a flower bed I have done nothing to yet.
Here is my tree with Ivy. Larry built the flower bed around it and the Ivy has really took off. The bird love the Ivy.
My garden and Larry's in the 'afar'.
Larry is getting ready to plant watermelons. See that dark strip...that is for the Black Diamonds and some yellow meated melon. If you really look you can see his corn up.
