Did The Rain Drown My Flowers?

I got my flowers planted yesterday with my neighbors help just before all the rain this morning when I woke up. I was afraid they would drown. But I don't think they are damaged too bad. I had put flowers in pots on my patio on Saturday and yesterday I planted flowers in the front.

I have always heard doing yard work is therapy and I do need some therapy right now. I am not real good at it. I sure don't have a green thumb. But give me an A for trying. It will also keep me busy.The only thing I hate about yard work is all the little creatures out there. I seen a long worm in the flower bed when I was pulling out grass. And spiders are the scariest things ever.  I cannot stand a spider. I have ants real bad too and wasps nests by the front door. I got spray for the wasps and poison for the ant beds so hopefully that gets rid of them.

I just got to remember to water the flowers. I usually forget. That was hard work getting all the grass out of the flower bed. So I cant kill them! At least everything was on sale at Home Depot. I got bags of dirt that was on sale and then mulch and the flowers were $1.00 for six together. That was all a good price. I guess I done it at the right time. I would like to get a couple of rose bushes to put in the flower bed.

I want to get a deck for the back yard. I don't know if I can afford that but I want to try. I would like to have a little pond and a patch of wildflowers close to it and just have grass on one side of the yard. I know exactly what I want but getting the money to fix it like I want is another story.

On the deck I would like to have lots of pots of flowers and some lounge chairs . A table with umbrella would be nice. Some windchimes and a few hanging baskets. That is my dream and it doesn't hurt to dream. Right?
