Town Planters....

Throughout our little town are many of these containers.  They are even in the park and by the pool.  They are by every store. Beautifully filled with flowers and plants. Makes me proud of our town when it is taken care of so nicely. I saw many new containers this year. Some by the library.  
  I have not been out too much this past weekend. I did see two of my daughters yesterday. Today, Ted is taking me out to lunch. I missed the classmate brunch this morning. Just wasn't up to it. Did not want to be hugging my friends either...no sense passing this cold around. LOL  Trying to get in to see my G.P. (doc). They never have enough help , no one to answer the phones only. I want to get a check up and talk with the Doctor, for my peace of mind.  Got to get busy here. Wishing everyone a great new week . Hopefully today will be a good day. XO

  2. Hope you feel better really soon, Susie. Summer is no time to not be feeling well. :-) I too love it when the towns are dressed up with planters. We have boulevards filled with petunias in a town nearby. I love it!

    1. Judy, I hate being sick but it's worse in summer . I have got to get to Wabash, Indiana...they have pots of petunias all over and hollyhocks grow wild all thru the town. Such a pretty sight. Blessings, xoxo,Susie

  7. Susie, the planters around your town are so pretty. I really like them because usually you only see one type of flower in those pots, but these have bright different colors. They are very nice. I'm sorry you're feeling under the weather. You've been through a lot lately, Susie. Have a nice lunch with Ted today; I think that's just what you need, time away with your best friend.

    Thank you for the wishes on Jess' engagement post. She is so excited, and it makes her feel so loved when she gets comments like this one from you. They've been dating for 11 years, and it was long overdue hehehe.

  10. Here's hoping you feel much better thru the week. Rest and lots of water is probably the best thing for ya...well, and a little chocolate tucked in now and then. LOL

    1. BJ, You are now my new doctor. I knew chocolate had to be healthy. LOL. It's the water thing I have to make myself think about. I am good first thing in the morning and if I wake in the night I get a big drink then. It's sodas that I have to stop. :) Hope your day is a good one to start the week. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
