Peonies, Anyone?

Poppies next door!  Peonies here!  No explanation needed.  They are gorgeous.

This little robin was on my back doorstep this morning.  I think she was waiting for the sprinklers to stop.  When I said hello to her, she looked me right in the eyes.  Sometimes the mother birds employ tough love.  The nests get too small and the babies are out on their own, ready or not.  She probably saw the geranium pots and the bright petunias waiting for planting, and decided to have a closer look. 

Sometimes I Google teapots. I know, I'm an image addict.  I think Tina over at The Quiet Home has a teapot like this one.  Isn't it pretty?  And I suppose you want me to pour out?  (That's a line from Mary Poppins!) Yesterday, I knit a little (confusing instructions!  I'm blindly following!) and I drew a little bit (making a little picture book for a friend) and I watched an embarrassing number of Lark Rise episodes.  Oh, I filled the bird feeders and played with Millie Rose.  I'm waiting for "the urge" to clean.  I really thought it would arrive sooner.  Hmmmmm.  No, I have not made THE APRON yet.  I DID tidy my sewing box.  That's a start, right? Truth be told, I'm having a bit of a challenge here, adjusting to the "what to do first" feeling.  I way over think the options.  Well, I think I've inspired myself enough now.  Thank you for popping by!  I hope your state of mind is buoyant, giddy even!  Time for more coffee and some porridge.
