What I did on my birthday

I gardened.

Here is some of the planting I did. This is the garden in the front of our house. I put in some marigolds, petunias, and a couple of other things that I don't remember what they are. The pansies are seeds from the hanging pansy we had last year.



Here is the hanging plant that my MIL got for me as a gift. Isn't it beautiful? It's a lobelia.


I was tagged by ultimatejourney for the 'I am' meme. I will complete that next. It seems to have run its course, however, and I'm not sure if I can tag anyone else. But we shall see.

I am not worried about the party tonight. I am lucky that way. Everyone who will be there (except for the kids) know what we are going through and try to be as empathetic as possible. And my two nieces are older and don't make my insides feel like they are going to explode. Plus, I get cake.
