I Got Nothing

I’ve got nothing to say today.  Oh, don’t be so surprised.  It could happen.  But it.  (whew)  I just feel a little short on time, so I’ll save my “nothing-ness” for later.  I’d just like to Flaunt my Flowers for anyone wishing to take a peek.   Follow the link above to see others flaunt their flowers too!

Above are impatients.  Below is gailardia.

It has been such a cool summer – even for us.  Just because I live in Minnesota, doesn’t mean it’s the artic circle and we do have hot, humid summers.  Except for this year when I think we’ve hit 90 only 2 or 3 times and even rarely over 80.  Far be it for me to be critical but I gotta object to the north wind we had yesterday – meaning it came to us from Canada……I suppose it’s no one’s fault really.  And I’ve gotta remember all the good things that come to us from Canada.  (How’s that for digging myself out of a hole?)

We’ve had too much rain also.  And, since I’m sure you want the “farm report”, I gotta say it won’t be our best year.  We’re a good month later than usual getting in the wheat – it needs hot weather to ripen.  We’re keeping our fingers crossed to start tomorrow.  Soybeans & sugarbeets?  Well, we don’t know yet but since everythings late this year and we work against the freezing weather in a normal year, well, you see where there could be a conflict.  But it will be what it will be and we’ll be thankful for God’s blesssings.

The carpenter is making great strides on our new deck and will share later.

Yesterday was our first annual Woolies and Peeps day at Mrs. Farmhouse’s home.  I hope to get some of that on my blog soon.  The show ‘n tell will know your socks off!!!  in my humble opinion.
