a moment in time

It's been really hot but I noticed this daylily blooming out front. It's trying its best. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/nVBsoGg

The Lotus was in full bloom yesterday but I forgot to take a photo. It has a new bud so this weekend it should open. It's been really hot here so I don't spend a lot of time outside. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/tPIlSMV

It's raining again. We had a storm in the night with a lot of rain and 2 inches in one storm last week. We need the rain but the mosquitoes and bugs are exploding and the last couple of winters killed off a lot of our tropical lizards and the bullfrogs have eaten most all the toads. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/qXHMN14

Another soaking rain. We've gotten more rain so far this year than we got during all of 2022. We're still under water restrictions though because it takes a while to fill the aquifer back up. #pond #rain #sanantonio — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/DaXGf6h

I have a couple of containers full of these spool knitted things that I've been trying to weave into small cat blankets I can donate to a shelter. I have trouble finishing the last step of getting them off the zippy loom. So I've stopped. I need to get past the mental block I have and get these finished. I knit these at night while I'm watching TV it's very calming. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/pleYWfV

The brugmansia is blooming already. It's really liked all the rain we've had this spring. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/gfUrKnl

The pond at night. My color changing light only does red now. I have a spare, I just have to find it. The Lotus is growing fast but neither one of my tropical water lilies survived. :( — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/YAFhI3E

My Mums from last fall are blooming again. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/SORdCfc

The Butterfly Koi have grown a lot and the Lotus now has leaves that stand up above the water. All the rain we've been getting has helped. More severe weather in our forecast for Friday night into Saturday. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/VjXP2r5

The Caladiums that I dig up every fall and replant every spring are already gigantic. They were pushing the shoebox open out on the garage shelf before I got them planted. My Elephant Ears aren't even that big yet. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/Za12sjS

The yellow hibiscus is blooming. It's been slow to recover from the freeze we had in 2020. It died back to the roots and took forever to grow leaves again. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/n4LJ1A5

These Easter Lilies in the front flower pot come back every year. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/kPABW6J

I've been bringing my purple shamrock plant inside during our recent storms so it doesn't get damaged and today I find this stuff growing on one of the leaves. It's pretty but probably not good. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/ro0CuFl

Took a few more things out of the greenhouse. We had a chance for severe storms so I didn't want to put anything fragile out. Everything survived, we had mostly just heavy rain and it's a lot colder out today (Sunday). The squirrels did dig in all the pots and I'm hoping they didn't ruin the Caladiums I planted. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/c0Sf7Av
