so many posts, so little time!

we had some gardeners come out to do some work in our yard today. it does not have access to the back, so we hired some guys to come and move a lot of dirt and rocks to make a pathway to the back.










well, it made me feel guilty, 'cause here is what my herb garden looks like these days! if you click on the photo, it will get bigger, and close-up you can see how scary, out-of-control the weeds really are!














some of the flowers are blooming and looking so pretty. i love these blue violets! i had my daughter time me, and only let me be out pulling weeds for a half an hour...i usually only stop when i hurt too badly to go on!











i made a tiny dent in the wilderness, and got a couple more herbs planted. here are my son's boots that he gave to me before he got deployed to iraq...he laughed when saw i planted flowers in them!










i love the bleeding heart...so pretty!
