Just tatting

Today is starting with a very cloudy sky...tomorrow is a forecast of rain but the temps will still be in the 70s. Medical test this morning then maybe out to lunch with Dianna and Bobby. This morning started at 6:30 AM for me....can not believe that I slept until such a time! So, instead of doing laundry I picked up my tatting

which looked like this yesterday and now looks like

The outside edge is half done. It is not perfect by any means, but the pattern is new for me and there are stitches that I have done before but it has been some time and definitely could be better. The next one will be much better.
I looked out the window and what did I see....

Ready to pick they are. So many more on the plant too. The beans are looking good too and I will not even discuss the Alien Snail Vine. Yesterday since it want to join the outside light at the back door, I gave it a garden twine to crawl on instead of hanging out in space. Amazing how this plant is growing. Don came by to attach the wrought iron hook to the wall for me.

Now the Rain Chain has a perfect home. I will get a chance to see it work if we get the rain on Tuesday.  I love having this in my garden.....thank you Dianna and Bobby!
There is a new blog, but not a new blogger in town. Deena AKA Parsley, from http://parsleyandthepack.blogspot.com/ is back in town. Her former blog was Seasons of the Mind. Parsley's life took some turns and she decided to start a new blog to better reflect who she is. I have been a follower since way back when so I am happy she is back. Stop by and say hello.
That is about it for me. If I continue to doddle about I will forget that I have a 10 AM appointment to get to. I think I have a little time to get more tatting done.....
Thank you for stopping by and for your kind words. Most of all thank you for your friendship.
