Our grad daughter has now mailed out 13 letters of positivity, and has received two special delivery baskets full of grad gifts. Graduation will happen the end of May. We will all line up outside 10 feet apart, be called into the gym one at a time so each can receive their diploma and it will be filmed live on social media for others to watch.
Even though I covered my plants, the asparagus got hit hard with the low temps. Several new stalks are completely wilted over. So sad about this. Not sure yet if I will get any more and I'm worried about the ones just coming up now. We will get more cold weather today and tomorrow.
I got a "honk, honk" ditch the other day. We don't have a door bell (instead we have the dogs). A friend dropped off a bag of birthday gifts for me and it included an adult beverage.
The weather outside is . . .
High of 49, low of 33°F
How I am feeling this morning . . .

Looking around the house . . .
I have been blessed with many birthday and Mother's day gifts.
To relax this week I will . . .
Crochet
On my prayer list . . .
Our country and for this virus to end so we can all get back to a normal, healthy life.
I'm having the same difficulties with my asparagus. I got 2 little messes & not sure if there will be more this year. 18 degrees here this morning. The grads here are doing a parade around town on live facebook & getting their diplomas. Later in June an actual graduation ceremony is planned.
ReplyDeletewildflower Adventures, we had a real graduation planned late June, but I guess they changed their minds about it.
ReplyDeleteThey moved the graduations around here all the way out to July except one county over in Kansas is doing it at drive-in movie theater (pretty creative). Looks like you were treated to a beautiful sunrise as well. Hope it warms up for you and that you have a fantastic week!
ReplyDeleteOur weather is super strange too. I've never still had plants inside this late. Let's hope it all evens out so we can get back to normal gardening.
ReplyDeleteJean several schools in our area are doing the drive thru at the football field, at the drive in or virtual.
ReplyDeleteJoanna, you are right on that one. My bedroom (best sunlight) is looking like a greenhouse right about now ha ha!
ReplyDeleteHow nice they will be able to have a graduation anyways! Love the grad gifts and your birthday gift.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week
Hope you had a wonderful Birthday and Mothers day. Sorry to read about the asparagus, hope you haven't lost too much. The weather here is up and down too with a flurry of snow on Sunday, strange times with strange weather.
ReplyDeleteThanks Luludou
ReplyDeleteThanks mamasmercantile, the weather has been troublesome again this spring.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that they have found a way to still have graduation! CONGRATULATIONS to her! Have a GREAT week.
ReplyDeleteOur temps here have been crazy too. This has been the coldest April and May I can remember. Hope your plants do well. I haven't even planted ours outside yet. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks threesidesofcrazy
