My garden growth

It can cool down anytime it wants to now.  I have almost every window full of small containers with veggies and flowers of one kind or another.  Plus my African violets.  Blooming beautifully  had an experience this morning---A young girl from my church is in the Detention center for breaking her parole.
She and her sister became involved with some friends that were not to smart.  Gangs.  That says it all.  They both were sentenced to a stay in the center.Got out and the temptation was great to be with old friends and that got both of them in trouble.  not once but several times. #2 sister (17) is now out and doing the right thing.  #1 sister (18) is still there but on work release now.  I could not see #1 as planned hope to be able to next week. She is such a really good young woman who has finished herhigh school studies and graduated.  If I have my way she is headed to higher education.  The girls are Latino and there are lots of young folks are here that can lead them to the wrong path.  I hope that I can change their minds.  Back to my sewing room.

Monday morning

My day began at 6AM outside so the temps of the later day did not cook my brains. Dug dirt from my garden and filled pots to transplant my starters. Bob is sure that I am nuts. He does not like to work in the soil and grow things. These days he does not like much of anything.I wish that I could get him interested in something!!!!! It will be just grand when the cooler weather arrives. Not long now.Time to get into the sewing room. My spot where I am boss. Happy Day to all who may read this.

I must be crazy to think that I can do two Blogs. At my age I'll try anything if I do not hurt anyone or myself.

Of course Sunday is church time. The Children's Church is running very well and for the time being we have all bases covered. Parents are glad to be helpers or at least most of them. I wonder sometimes when God will tell me, Your to old to do this so quit. But the children are such a part of my life. Since I have lived away from my grandchildren and great grandchildren These cute kids take their place. Besides it is only for less then an hour a week.

Am sewing & tatting as much as possible. Show time is coming soon. Joyce had better get home soon. My little plants need to be transplanted. They are for the garden but we need cooler weather before they can go out side. To the sewing machine. Happy Sunday.
