I only scored a "Nice" on today's Spelling Bee. This was a tough word hunt. I gave up. ☮️

I use to house Mother Mary in the Redwood tree cave, but I moved her to a different spot and built a little garden around her. Buddha dwells in the Redwood tree cave now. No plants purchased from any garden centers, all propagated here at home or found as tiny starts elsewhere and purloined.

I give up.

I picked the Lavender at the neighbors house and made a wreath. #WreathMaking#Lavender

Cheers Cory! (I jumped on Twitter today to ask ABC,NBC & CBS not to air the prime time speech the Liar in Chief wants to address the nation with. I'm heartened to hear that 2 of the networks will not air the propaganda. CBS will air it. I know what U mean about the "state of the country".) Peace☮️

#SamNeill I love the film "Dean Spanley". Sam Neill takes you on a journey where for a few fleeting moments you experience the joy of being a dog. Woof woof.

Sometimes you're up and sometimes you're down.

Rose Campion entangled with a small Japanese Maple (Acer). The tree was in a pot & the Rose Campion voluntarily grew in the pot too. When removed from the pot for planting in the ground I couldn't extricate the one from the other, they were so entwined. And now that's how they remain. #gardening

I found 17 words but I'm giving up--I've got outdoor chores going on.

#gardening I grew these poppies from seed.

Today's roses growing in my garden. #gardening

I can't think of any more words this morning. This attempt will have to do.

#gardening It's what I live for.

#Flowers blooming in my garden in June 2026. (I planted hundreds of those lilac poppy seeds from last years' poppy pods and I only got one poppy plant blooming. But I'll take it!!!!)
