Susie, you look great! Love the creatures! Very cute!

Well, our first day in NYC was a mess. Spent almost 2 hours trying to find the place to have our bus tickets validated! Then another 2 hours trying to find a store that journee wanted to visit. I tried to map things out ahead of time but I got turned around somewhere. She was not a happy camper, but I let her know real fast that I was doing the best I could and I was doing it for HER, so she got over it. I have things mapped out today exactly. Wish me luck! :)

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Julie, do you have a phone with with a map app? Plug in your address, and it will take you right too it!

Susie, I love the yard art, and you look lovely!

How nice to see a picture of our lovely Queen! And the critters aren't bad either, lol. I'm with Betty though; I'd have to empty my bank account and give the money to somebody else until I got away from your friend's yard!

Julie, I hope today is better. I also hope Journee can learn that looking around wherever she finds herself can be enchanting too. Sometimes getting lost is the best part of an excursion!

Just have to say, Susie you're amazing. :~)

Victoria Harbour, ON

Sounds as though a lot is getting done in your Majesty's kingdom...hurrah
sometimes I'm sure the Lord sends rain so we have to take a day of rest.

speaking of rain, calling for rain all weekend, every Mother's day the boys get together and do to completion any 'to do' I've added on my list the entire year.. few inside projects but not enough to keep them busy..might if weather forecast doesn't change, change to another day

enjoy

(susie) Hastings, MI(Zone 5a)

rest full day Dishes done floors swept mopped , dog bathed , took a 2 hr nap
didn't know i was tired but fell asleep. so guess my body needed the rest :)
right now i'm going to take a drive into town BBL

Springfield, OR(Zone 8a)

So glad you're getting good sleep Susie! It's such a big help towards feeling better. And after having to sleep on a pea while Princesses, Queens deserve luxurious sleep!

So Betty, if rain is forecast but doesn't fall does it mean He thinks we haven't worked hard enough yet? I'm not trying to be funny; I agree with your first statement. It's just that we keep getting rain predictions here but no actual precipitation. Oh, and I think you're amazing too.

Victoria Harbour, ON

You are too sweet and yes, could mean that 😉

Hard to believe you can almost see the leaves opening..one minute peach fuzz the next opening

Too exciting

Springfield, OR(Zone 8a)

Spring is such a big sigh of release, as if we've been holding our breaths.

(susie) Hastings, MI(Zone 5a)

I Love watching the Plants Awaken from their Winter sleep & This rain is really good for them .
Since its going to be cloudy & wet I'm going to go help a friend sort through her Boxes in her Basement they moved into this New home about 3-4 yrs ago & She still has over 100 boxes to go through so i told her I would help list them to sell :) What she wants to get rid of . why do i get myself into these spots :) ? just waiting for her to call me hope she cancels .

well this Queen is going to finish my coffee & go whip up a couple eggs :) will be back about noon if i don't go over to help M F .

Springfield, OR(Zone 8a)

Hope the Queen has the day she'd LIKE to have!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Greenfield, NH(Zone 5b)

Hello Everyone....and Queen Susie!
You look fantastic out there with the yard critters!
I agree - watching the plants wake up and grow is such a thrill this time of year! We've gone from cold and chilly to temps WAY above normal....it might be 90 on Saturday....we never reach 90 in May let alone June...we're lucky if we hit that by July! The plants love the sun but they need water now....so I've been out there watering...my least favorite garden chore! I hate moving the heavy garden hoses all around the yard...I must look into those new light shrinking hoses....
Hope you all had a great day today!

I have 7 daffodils blooming...a windflower tulip...my azelas.....and grape hycinths! YAHOO!

Springfield, OR(Zone 8a)

Welcome to Spring Alikat!

Queen Susie, did you really rest your back?!? I know the temptation not to! You're probably fast asleep,as I prepare to make myself some dinner. Sometimes it doesn't seem as though I'm on the same planet as you all, lol.

So good morning everybody!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Dropping into the Kingdom to wish out Queen Susie a sunshine day..

I'm glad she liked it..had it half made when I thought I'd add her name to the back, not the prettiest way of doing her name..had I thought of it earlier I would have embroidered it.
Did she notice inside a toggle with a change purse? Had meant to put it Canadian townie and loonie and it skipped my mind, by the time it remembered again it was already bundled up.

Was my pleasure..you put so much energy in this swap, was going to include something extra for you but you speak so often of zoey that I thought you would like it better having a bag for her

Smiling at the photo's, pretty queen and princess

Also smiling that I managed to get the entire queen for the month swap done without hiccups..of course I did the lazy mans gift, all the same

(susie) Hastings, MI(Zone 5a)

Oh Betty sewing is not a Lazy project I don't even know the 1st thing about threading a needle & all your Gifted talents are so welcome I Still have your chalk board next to my Desk .

Zoey : Loves it Don't think she has put it down since it came
she had it outside & I told her she was going to get it dirty,
I won't ,I Promise was her reply she's waiting for her Mom to get home .

as for mine you could not have chosen anything Better then the CHICKEN Pattern for me You took my heart with them :) & Ya Know I Gotta love the red -White-&Blue .

Thundering Just a rolling Up this way But Most of the rain is South of us not sure if it will reach us or not .
Hope so we can use it .

also thank for the seeds I plan to get them planted this evening yet I have the spot all worked up just have to plant them .
yes she found the change purse & Toggle I told her that she would have to work harder now to earn coins for her coin purse, So we will see :)
well my super is about done be back later

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Awe Susie, that picture says it all.
