Wisteria....here, there and everywhere...

My wisteria has a lot of blooms on it...a LOT. Not that I think that is out of the ordinary...I think it is normal. However, most of mine did not open last year....
A good part of the morning sun is blocked by my crab apple tree...but I think we are about to remedy that. Roger hates the crab apples in the fall...I do not remember the ones on my mom's trees getting very big. The ones on this tree grow to well over an inch in diameter--I would say close to an inch and a half in diameter.

I have mentioned before that it seldom blooms pretty...this year turned out to be an exception. But still I would rather have my wisteria's bloom all open as to have that tree with maybe a chance of pretty blooms. So, we may cut it it down tomorrow. And just maybe the wisteria blooms will open up.

We went for a drive today... I was suffering from 'tiredness' too much to enjoy it. I don't know what is wrong with me. I don't know if it is mental, or hormones off, or just plan laziness. We came home and I sat down here for a few minutes...

I decided to put on the music and start on a project that has been on my mind for longer than I wanted to admit. I started washing down my kitchen cabinets, taking down the knickknacks off the top and washing them as well as the top of the cabinets. I will not describe to you how bad it was, but it was BAD.

I don't know if it was actually doing something that helped, or just listening to music while I worked, but I did get quite a bit done before I stopped for the evening. I did leave my stepladder inside till I will have to look at it till I do the rest of the cabinets. I would like to get them done tomorrow but not sure how that will work out if we cut that tree down.

Oh, and did it turn colder where you are? It was so chilly I had on a fleece jacket today when we were on our drive. We went south and east of where we lived. I figured it would be warmer there, but got back here and it was at least 5, if not 10 degrees warmer here. But it is chilly now. I am wondering what it will do to my wisteria...nothing I am hoping.
