Monday with Gray Skies....

It is a cold day with this band of clouds stretching for a long ways. Snow flurries started at midmorning mixing with the cold winds.  There is not evidence that there is a sun other than we do have daylight. We delivered our youngest son at the airport at noon getting him there for his flight back to New York City and then to Bangor, Maine. He had a good visit with college buddies, watched his team win and spent down time with the good old days of college.  He spent time with us on Sunday and also this morning while eating pancakes at I-Hop. We had a great time with him hanging around but he will be home tonight and back to work tomorrow.

Our downstairs nursery has the begonia still in bloom. I know that I have to watch the plant closely making sure it doesn’t get overwatered or too dry.  Once they take a hit of shock from bad watering procedures, they are just gone.

The oxalis sits next to the begonia.  It seems to be doing well now and probably will start blooming again. Also the poinsettia is to the far right of the photo.

The two posts of agapanthus are in now and they escaped the hard freeze. The one has a special old table to sit on while the other gets to sit on the floor.

We are glad to see our son but it does make it hard to know that he and his wife live so far away.  Someday we maybe can venture out to see them but for now it will be phone calls to catch up on things.

It is Monday and I am hoping our weeks gets better.  It is promised to us that it won’t.  Staying inside is the best thing to do when it does that.  Thanks for stopping by today.
