BUSY WEEK IN MINEOLA

Our Wisteria is starting to bloom. It is a new vine from last year


and is blooming very late this year.






GARAGE SALE OVER!!!!! FOR THE TIME BEING.


Well it's over for now. Will probably have a art and craft sale soon to rid myself of some of the stuff I don't think I will ever use again. My interests have changed over the years. Our sale was amazing. Sold almost $600 of real junk. Only had three items at $30 and then rest were mostly .50 and $1.00


This is the rose from last blog! As they bloom out, they change color from yellow to pink. This is the color with no photo enhancement. Amazing!


Planted some pine trees, worked in the yard but most of all we did finish the floor or our screened porch with bricks. It was painted and looked real bad so we decided to brick it and it worked great. We still have to paint the steps but that will be easy. Concrete under the bricks isn't even cracked after 58 years! This house was built to last.





On Wednesday we went to Tyler for http://www.lifelinescreening.com/ We will get the results in about 21 days. Should be interesting. Easy, fast and should give us some idea of where we are now in our health mode. Guess we are not tooooooo bad as if they see something bad, they let you know right away, otherwise someone reads the tests and then they send you a report.


We are getting ready to head to Iowa next week. Our granddaughter is playing tennis on her High School team and is pretty good so we want to go and watch. Also, a spring visit will be nice. We have a list a mile long of folks to see and then our friend Connie will be heading back to Texas for a visit with us. That will be great fun as we always love to have her here. Wish more of our friends and family would stop by---we have the space for you! Here is a picture of our Emily! She is almost thru her junior year and we are most proud of her. She seems to love tennis and it good. I think Tennis is a great sport---you can do it all your life.







Went out today and took some pictures in the yard. Some of the flowers are fading but new one coming on. Hope I don't bore you with my flower pictures but that is something I love to take.




Close up of the Wisteria---Their sent is amazing!


Roses and Wisteria this week. Buddy helps me take them by laying down in the grass and watching me. What a sweet dog he has been. We are not taking him to Iowa but he is going to stay with Jennifer and family and his buddies, Kramer, Snickerdoodle and Oreo. They do have a great time
