Six thirty this morning. Oh yes, I am loving these longer daylight hours.
Low humidity this morning, sweet and cool.
My flowers are loving the heat though....well as long as I give them some water.
Marigolds and petunias, to go with my yellow this year. These sit on a bench made of an old fence post.
I had petunias with this potato vine and took them out, the vine needed the whole container.
More of the yellow petunias and marigolds on the porch. I did paint the stand, pot and cement ball all gray.
Speaking of paint...I painted the stars from the shed front and the old watering can. Here's the cans of tan and brown to paint the shed. Our next project. Hoping to get it done very soon.
I am not in love with blogger's changes or windows ten and all their "latest" up-dates. Takes forever for my pictures to load. You all know about not receiving notice on your email about any comments we leave on each others' blogs. That stinks. I feel better getting that whining finished. LOL
Wishing all a beautiful day. XO
What a pretty view early this morn. Don't you love the cool mornings when the humidity is low? Your flowers are doing so well. Beautiful. Blogger changes are very frustrating...Lots of weird problems for me yesterday with blogging. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThank you Mildred. I do love the coolness of the mornings...there was no humidity today, crisp clear air. This weekend is to very hot. Hope you are enjoying your week. Blessings,love, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWhat a beautiful morning view Susie! Love that first picture! I keep forgetting to check the notify me box on my posts to receive emails for the comments lol! Let me go do that now!
ReplyDeleteThere was a bit of time I was getting reply on my g.mail acct. Not now. Emails are only from my daughter and Kohl's and CVS. LOL. Hope you are having better weather. Today here was one of our best. Summer is less than 6 days away. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour flowers are beautiful and I do enjoy the summer mornings. I got out this morning to wash windows! What fun! The blogger comment problem is indeed a problem. Trying to remember to check the little box. I also had to change my setting for comments. Think I have it now.
ReplyDeleteI am not even sure how to go about fixing some of our problems here. Windows 10 keeps wanting to up-date and I have already let them do that yesterday evening. Making me nuts. LOL Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteEverything is so pretty at your place! Love all your flowers!
ReplyDeleteI miss the notifications! I’m going back to see if I can check that box! I thought it only worked if you are leaving a comment!
I think if you check the box you leave a comment on...it helps who is getting the comment. I am so confused abut it all. Linda, have a wonderful weekend and be safe. love you, Blessings to all, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYou have the most beautiful views there, Susie...big sky and wide open spaces!
ReplyDeleteLinda, the field across the road is soy beans this year...so I can still see ..but when it's corn I often feel hemmed in. Hope you are enjoy some cool weather. Our weekend is to be very hot. But today...oh it was perfect. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteA beautiful and serene start to your day Susie :)
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are doing so well, ours started out full and happy but this heat and humidity are taking a toll ….
Even the garden center tells me they are having a hard time keeping the flowers nice without wilting.
Love the barn stars and old watering can, so nostalgic.
Stay cool !
Hugs,
~Jo
Jo, I went by one of the places that sells flowers here and it was a wilted desert. So sad. I water my plants every day..even if it says rain on the forecasts. Blessings for a great weekend there , xoxo, Susie
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI like the stars, well done.
I am with you, longer days, low humidity ='s perfect.
Carla, I would love a whole summer filled with days like today...just the best. We still need rain, as our lawns are starting to look so brown in spots. We had some rain ,just not enough. Blessings to you and yours,xoxo, Susie
DeleteWe've all been whining. But at least we can celebrate the beautiful weather and long lovely days! That's something!
ReplyDeleteJeanie, Some times I just have to let it out. LOL. Days like today...wow, I could live thru a whole summer of this. It isn't lasting long, because we are in for a really hot weekend. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
Deletethe flowers are beautiful, you are so much further into summer than we are,, I love love those stars,, you don't see them here,, they're beautiful,
ReplyDeleteThank you Laurie. I slap some paint on faded things and make them last longer and look new. I think we had a couple weeks of spring then it went right to the 80's and 90's. I do love the longer days...that's what is so sad about winter..not enough daylight. Blessings for a great weekend, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour clematis is lovely, Susie! Isn't it wonderful having more daylight and nicer weather! -Jenn
ReplyDeleteJenn, Even though some of the days are unbearably hot, I still love the long days and sunshine. Hope you are getting to be outside too. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour air looks so fresh and clean!
ReplyDeleteAnd you are very good with your flowers, they are gorgeous!
Why can't Blogger leave things alone? :-)
Hi Kay, I love our clear bright days when you smell the freshness of the air. I wish blogger had not change. Now when I leave some one a comment I never know how they feel about it. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI too, am enjoying these longer days!
ReplyDeleteHi Carrie, Glad you love the longer days too. Even if I am sitting on the porch it's good to be outside. It would be nice to be able to turn the AC off and just enjoy fresh air with the windows open...it's too hot to do that. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteHi Susie...your plants are gorgeous and thriving...love the lone stars from your shed...of course they remind me of Texas...have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you Betsy. I did not put out as many flowers as I had hoped. But I enjoy the ones I have now. I have to get those stars back on the shed soon, or I will forget. :) Blessings, stay cool there. xoxo, Susie
Deletelove all your pretty decor!! And I am with you about Blogger. I am mad at them. I do not like change.lol
ReplyDeleteArlene, I do not always agree that change is good. Not for an old girl like me anyways. I need some classes in computer tech. I just can't seem to finish decorating all at once...it just goes on and on. I stained the porch floor two years ago and the blistering sun has faded it already. I need to do it all over...in the mean time we are working on painting the shed...never ending work...this is retirement. LOL. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour flowers are doing so well, Susie! Your sunrise pic reminded me of an old hymn, 'Some Golden Daybreak'. It was wonderful to have that one day of low humidity and cool breezes. Have a blessed weekend.
ReplyDeleteKaren, I could stand to live a whole summer with those low humidity days. Hope you had some of those too. This is going to be a hot one this weekend. Stay cool. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour flowers are doing really good. I'm happy ours survived a week away....not that I'm the one who looks after them ;-) My hubby keeps them alive!
ReplyDeleteDoris, My daughter's husband watered her plants for a week while she vacationed with her daughter. bless his heart. Container plants are so pretty and we enjoy them...but they can be work. Blessings to you and yours, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI love the longer days! Your flowers look beautiful. I love the yellows.
ReplyDeleteLisa
Thank you Lisa. I thought I would go with the color yellow as I kept seeing pretty touches of it in blogs. My paint was a bit bright but it worked with the gray and cream colors. I do love the pale yellow of the petunias. :) Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour flowers are doing so well and are so pretty. I did a few planters of yellow petunias this year too. The colors are so vibrant. Loving this nice weather. Hoping with the rain moving out my flowers will bounce back some. They have really taken a pounding with all the rain. Happy Father's Day Weekend to your Hubby.

Kris, So odd that you had so much rain and we had an inch through out a month. We need some right now. Oh sweet girl we will be roasting this weekend. Stay cool. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteMost of my flowers are just starting to bloom..?too much rain?? Going to get hot this weekend..Yuk..ENjoy your Fathers Day..
ReplyDeleteMissy, I was shock at the weather your state received. We sure could use an inch of rain. It won't be this weekend...it is going to be very hot. The forecasters were talking heat index..that means hot. Makes me slow as a snail.:) Stay cool friend, Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeletePretty pretty morning! Calm and sunny! Looks peaceful. Love those big purple blooms!--that's clematis, right? Hope you have a real nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you Debbie.I wish my whole summer could be a sweet as that morning. Yes, that's a clematis...in my mommy's favorite color. :):) It must get just the right amount of sun and shade..it does so well. I hope you also have a wonderful weekend. Blessings to you and yours, xoxo, Susie
DeleteHaha, whine all you want, my friend. I'm right there with you. Love all your cheerful flowers, Susie. Is that Clematis I spy? Gorgeous! Sprucing things up -- as with your shed project -- is fun and so rewarding isn't? Lots of work, too, but so worth it in the end. Enjoy these warmer days. I know what you mean about the mornings, that's what I experience here in our new state of Texas. The mornings are beautiful where we are. Low humidity, lots of sunshine and a cooling breeze. Perfect! Hugs, sweet friend. Continue to enjoy life, as I know you do!
ReplyDeleteNancy, Since you are in Texas...you need to visit Lind of Linda's Life Journal..a wonderful lady with lots of loving family. Also BJ of Sweet Nothings, and Betsy of Estelle's..gosh there's so many wonderful blog people in Texas. Now you too. I hope all is working out for you and your husband. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
Deleteps. Happy Father's day to your hubby.
