That is a lot of flowers. Wildflowers are my favorite too! Looking out my back window, I have one gorgeous flower in my neighbors yard. In my front yard, I have one flower on a tree that is just about dead, imagine my surprise. I thanked God for the gifts he left outside my windows for me.

Don't you just love that? Sometimes, I'll have a few flowers spring up that aren't supposed to grow back and I look down and think, "Oh, how lovely You are Lord to give me that gift." I love pansies. I had some of those come back and sometimes there is only a single one. I think those are so pretty and cute because they look like they have little faces on them.
I still have more flowers to finish planting and threw some wildflower mix that I got in a box on a patch of dirt. I don't know how that's going to work out....lol.
My husband cut down this old apple tree we had that was infested and dead. He dug out the stump burned the wood and planted grass seed in that place where it was. We were laughing the other day because the grass is growing in but it looks like a small, perfectly round crop circle. I guess we can always tell people a tiny alien ship landed there.

I can't have flowers.
I have a sheep.
...I have a few things in pots out the front of my house, but that's about it.
One day I'll own my own house (we currently rent) and have a REAL garden. I'll also have a house that isn't incredibly dark and damp.

AWWW! You have a sheep? Do you have a name for it? How cute. I would love to have a sheep.
I plant all my flowers in pots too but I ended up planting just a couple of them in the ground because I used all my pots. You won't believe this but it took me a few days and I have 19 pots of different flowers. I have plant stands all over but I don't know where to put them all. I have them in the back and the front. I keep saying every year, "I'm just doing a couple of flower pots this year." and it never works out that way. Then, I had to set up all my solar lights. I have dragonflies and hummingbirds that slowly change colors, bunny pots with solar lamps on them, etc. It all looks so nice but it's a lot of work.
There's a woman who started her own business here that rents her goats out to people that need their property weeded..they actually do a nice job. I saw it on the local news. I could use some of those goats. I'm tired of pulling weeds.
Benjamin, does your sheep go, "D-a-a-a-a-a-a-d". Hahahahaha..That was so funny when my husband thought that was the kids when we went to PA one year on a camping trip. The kids were small then. He kept going, "What?!" while he had his eyes closed and laying back in a chair. The kids were gone on a boating trip with some people we went with but he was still sleeping when they left. I laughed so hard that it took me forever to tell him that it was sheep across the stream where some people had a farm. I know I've told this story before but I still laugh whenever I think about it. I think it's one of those things you had to be there for to get how funny it was.

Sheep's name is "Sheep".
He actually belongs to my landlord, but he lives at my place. He comes in the house if we leave the back door open. Last week we forgot to close the door, and went out to the shops. When we came home, he'd eaten a loaf of bread and broken open a box of cereal. Don't ask me how he even got the pantry open.

LOL! That is hilarious! I could just envision him snooping around for good treats to eat.
