Having given it a hard time with the chainsaw work this week, he has rested it since and got it strapped up. I'm glad you like my photos. I wish I had a better camera which gave good close-ups, but perhaps when we move I will indulge myself. I have a kitty on my lap as I type this (dear old Lucy, who is 18+ now).<br /><br />Suzie - I don't recall ever seeing one until Thursday. Lace-cap Hydrangeas yes, and I've always wanted one of those too. I am smitten!<br /><br />Thelma - she is such a sweetheart, and was always a live-in-the-barn cat until the winter before last when she finally decided it was Too Cold and Miserable out there, and just went into the kitchen like she'd always been there. She'd been shut in a few times down in mum's, so wasn't at all bothered about being indoors, but I guess just lived life on her own terms, just like Lucky did (and we think Lucky may have been her mum).<br /><br />Michelle - we have more than the two I have shown (cats that is). In fact we have 8, as people abandon them, or they arrive as strays and I must have "This lady loves cats" on my front door! I wonder if your cat would eat boiled fish? There is so much junk in a lot of the cat foods - we keep changing brands so ours don't get too fed up with the same one. I hope you had a good walk round your local market.<br /><br /><br />Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-92144265891161748722015-04-25T10:14:34.693-07:002015-04-25T10:14:34.693-07:00Kitty pics for the break of day--many thanks.

My kitty deigned to come in last night for a few hours during the rain but went right back out first time I got out of bed for a bathroom run in the wee hours. Your flowers just make the prettiest pictures-you're quite the photographer, BB. <br /><br />I'm watching sunflowers grow from seed into foot high sprouts headed for ten feet tall in sixty days, or so they claim on the package. That works out to about two inches a DAY of growth... Incredible and yet it seems to be happening on a day by day basis. So much fun !~! <br /><br />Hope OH's wrist calms down; sometimes there are no alternatives despite what would be better for us physically. Treat the symptoms as best you can with meds if doc agrees and Ice/Heat as tolerated. Sometimes I can get some relief if I alternate the hot and cold for a spell. Know I am sending healing thoughts his way...Lynda Halliger Otvos (Lynda M O)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08938791116446859160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-20592688003260789782015-04-25T07:17:12.483-07:002015-04-25T07:17:12.483-07:00The lace cap viburnum is stunning....I want one!

They are such beautiful flowers. I can understand why they sold for a small fortune when they were first introduced (tulipmania). I just wish I could plant my beautiful David Austin roses and the Lace cap, but they must languish in large containers until we finally move.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-23782163731022339592015-04-24T21:10:34.551-07:002015-04-24T21:10:34.551-07:00I love the Lace Cap, so pretty.

I will try and do that in the next week - so much has been happening as I've been helping my friend's daughter clear her house.
