Bird Bath and Spa

Renea went to the dentist this morning which means she drove thru Beauregard.  When she returned she said you could see where the tornado went thru.  I haven’t watched any news yet since I slept most of this morning.  I was exhausted.  Not used to staying up so late.
 
Today is beautiful and sunny.  It doesn’t look like we had any wind damage from the storms.  As for rain, we had about a quarter of an inch.  Guess I will have to water the trees tonight.
 
P.S.  The little yellow bird is back.
 
Didn’t do much today.  Didn’t even water the trees.
 
Today is another beautiful, sunny day, but windy.  After doing my morning chores I finished mowing my portion of the grass which is my front yard.  Now it is time for a break and lunch.  After lunch I decided to do some more weeding.  Almost finished so I can use roundup on the rest of the weeds. Just a little more tweaking.  I have weeded the azaleas bush to be transplanted.  It sure looks sad, but it has one bud.  The buds on the rhododendron are starting to open. 
 
The rest of the day I spent doing odds and ends.  I even sat on my swing on my deck for a while.
 
Patrick brought Kevin’s tractor back this morning and he is now mowing the grass in the back. He also picked up the branches and twigs that I had stacked over by the pecan trees.  I had planned to do that, but I just didn’t get to it.
 
After I finished my morning chores I went outside and watered all the new trees and plants in the front.  Everything is looking good.  Now the wind is starting to pick up again.  Not sure how much I will get accomplished outside this afternoon.
 
I planned on watching the race, but there was a rain delay.  By the time they started the race it was my bedtime. 
 
Today after church Kevin set up the new birdbath (which Renea refers to as a birdbath/spa) that I bought last Sunday.  It looks great.  I filled it with water.  Now, we just have to wait for the birds to visit.




Had supper with Kevin, Renea, Ryan and Stephanie tonight.  Renea fixed spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread.  We had cake that Renea baked for desert.  Great meal!  Now it’s time for some relaxation.  I have my to do list made for the coming week.  I need to rest tonight to get ready.

OH! I really like your bird bath! Two tiers and a bird on top! So pretty and different.

I didn't watch all of the race either. It's not that I don't like Kyle Busch, but I am getting tired of him winning. Now, I know why some of the haters hate Jimmie Johnson...they always used to say he won too much.
