Hi Everyone!
Wow, so much has happened since I posted last. I first want to say, I am sorry for everyone who has lost someone they know to COVID-19. What a horrible virus this has been! Here in NC we are in a Stay at Home order and have been for a few weeks now. I worry and pray for my family in NJ and here. I know NJ has been hit really bad (as well as NY). My sisters are not letting my Mom go out anywhere. She has been all right. I have been home since March 17th. On March 27th I was let go from my job due to COVID-19. COVID-19 has just wreaked havoc with everything we know and do. It really needs to go. With all that said, I have been trying to keep busy. I have been reorganizing, painting (a little), knitting, reading, gardening, baking and cooking. In the beginning I was also painting rooms (the guest room and guest bath). Here are some photos of things I have been doing:
 |
| Reorganized the pantry |
 |
| Reorganized my tea cabinet |
 |
| Caprese (Basil was from my garden) |
 |
| Grilled Steak, Caprese and some boiled potatoes |
 |
| Planted my Hosta-Great Expectations |
 |
| This is the Rose of Sharon from the one I gave my Dad. My Dad passed away 3.5 years ago. |
 |
| My lavender is blooming. So I guess it loves it here! |
 |
| Last night I made Ginger Chicken Stir Fry |
 |
| Chinese Noodles and Duck Sauce |
 |
| Enjoying nature. Cloud watching today from my courtyard patio. |
 |
| Little goldfinch came to my birdbath today. I had my first hummingbird today too at the hummingbird feeder I put out :)! |
 |
| The reorganized courtyard patio at my house. |
 |
| Beautiful moon rising up through the trees tonight |
 |
| I made banana bread. It was so good with my morning tea! |
 |
| The knockout roses in my neighborhood are starting to bloom! |
 |
| I finally got my garden in shape, so I put my armillary out. Love this piece. |
Hope you enjoyed the photos today! Be back tomorrow with more! :) Everyone be safe, stay home and be well. Hugs to you all!
You have been keeping busy! Your garden is looking lovely.
ReplyDeleteSorry you have been laid off dear - hopefully brighter, better days are ahead. Just be sure to stay well and be strong.
ReplyDeleteSherri, have you moved? Looks like you are in a different house.
Gardening is such a lovely thing to do at this very frightening time -I 'm so thankful to have mine - and we're lucky to be in NC aren't we as Spring came early and everywhere is looking so beautiful.
Hugs - Mary
Mary-John and I had moved on 11/23 to a 55+ neighborhood. That was a Saturday. That next Wednesday is when John died unexpectedly. I have immersed myself in the garden, painting the 2 bedrooms, etc., etc.
