Time to relax

I took advantage of the early morning comfortable temps and sweep the yard and planted a couple of new plants
   
 This is Sedge Evergold Grass which is planted by the pond. It will grow to about 12 inches and needs only once a week watering. I like that. I also planted a Geranium which we always have in the yard but until it blooms I have no picture.

this is my herb garden just outside the kitchen window. Italian parsley, English Thyme, Onion Chives and Sweet Basil. Everything is looking pretty good but it is time to come in and relax. The sun is getting quite warm. There is a breeze that will pick up every so often and the chimes sing out. Love the sound of the different chimes. I really need a few more; never have enough.
I have been trying to start my art project...takes a bit of thinking on my part. It has been so long since I have done any real art work.  I have watched the videos and feel inspired but yet to start my own.
The doctor visit went well. The tests showed no blockage but now on to a Vascular Surgeon as she has requested. She is a delightful doctor and even though I have to travel a bit to go to her, (I have been seeing her for 13 years) I just can not think of changing...at least not yet. When the drive
is too much of a chore then I will find someone closer. The staff is easy to work with and so caring.
Time for a cup of tea and a review of the art video. Alice is out and hoping that we visit today. It has been so nice that you stopped by. Thank you for your kind words and most of all your friendship.

Nice to see the garden doing so well with all the lovely plants.
I'm behind on blog reading so I'm only commenting on the most recent post.
Glad the garage sales helped shift some surplus stock from your garage to someone else's!
