These are gone now...but we sure enjoyed them once they started blooming. This does not do the color justice.
This is another rose on one of my daughter's rose bushes...we were over there this week to get in the mail and check on the kitty and it still has a lot of blooms on it. I have never tried to raise roses, and not sure why because I do like them. I think subconsciously I am afraid of failing at it.

I finished quilting my quilt but have to trim it and get the binding on it. I hope I can work on that this weekend. It was so rainy and dark and dreary it was rather easy to go to the basement to work on it. When it is sunny out, it is hard for me to make myself go down there. I am okay once I am down there on those days...it is just the getting there.
Roger had his stress test yesterday, but we have not heard the results. I think that will come in the middle of next week. I am praying that nothing comes of it. He had a super headache afterwards. But he had not had any caffeine in over 14 hours. Anyway, so glad it is over with.

I did vacuum this day and mopped...did a load of laundry. And not much else other than doing the quilting. I had leftovers for supper. I still would like to go into my sewing room and work but we always sit and watch a couple game shows and a few other things every evening/night.
I got the little funny below from somone's blog, but I don't remember who. I thought it funny and so true of some of us. We like growing things better than money or status. There is just so much more satisfaction from it.
I love roses and currently don’t have a single one. Maybe I, too, am afraid of failing. Your daughter’s pink one sure is a beauty.
ReplyDeleteThe rose is sogorgeous, it almost looks like a zinnia. If Roger's stress test would have been bad, I think you would have heard almost right away. No news is good news!
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteThere really is a feeling of accomplishment when you can grow good tomatoes!!
ReplyDeleteThat pink Rose has so many petals and is so lovely!!
Keeping Roger in my prayers for good results on his stress test. I'm sure he's glad to have it over with. That is a beautiful picture of that rose!
ReplyDeleteI love the funny. A home grown tomato is better than money or status!
I feel that power. But over the years, I'm powerless...I don't grow tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteThat is an old English rose? It's beautiful!!
The wait for test results can certainly cause stress in its own way!! Hope all is well.
I love roses, their colour and scent are amazing, but roses are not very fond of me - I usually end up full of thorns and scratches, especially if I try to grow one in the garden.
ReplyDeleteLove the tomato joke, it is soooo true :)) xx
Gorgeous flowers.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well with the results from Rogers stress test. Sometimes I think the waiting is the hardest part.
LOL at that last one. Yes, growing a tomato would give me more of a sense of power than money or status.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful. I hope Roger's test results are good. Waiting can be a pain. Take care, enjoy your weekend!
Bob got a headache from his also, his was in the pm and no coffee or food. they should make those appts in the early am.. praying it will be a good normal test result. did the radiation stuff make him feel crazy? bob hated the injection ... plus the machine broke and he had to get on it twice
ReplyDeleteFlowers are pretty. I have a clematis that rebloomed again this past week! Crazy weather.
ReplyDeleteI hope all turns out well with Roger's test.
Yesterday I watched You Tube, read and ate! Just that kind of day.
Have a great day!
Such beautiful flowers! Definitely growing things would make me feel powerful. I tend to kill the ones I want to grow.
ReplyDelete😊❤️ Fingers crossed on the stress test.
ReplyDeleteOh the pink rose is absolutely gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with the others in hoping all turns out well with Rogers test.
Love the "tomato metaphor"
ReplyDeleteI love the last table. Growth of plants is a big gift encouraging you.
