Oh My and what beautiful Lilies

Post by oldcoot »

:-? :-? :-? Lucy told me about these several weeks ago. Old Coot's bad memory got in the way of looking,

OV only had one Lilium thus year, looks lie either the squirrels or the draught last summer got them all. Won't be planting any more this year. Kinda sad when IC loves the so much. Even the trays on my Deck were barren.
Such is life when you can't tend to them your self.

No healing on the hip at all, Going back to see the Dr next month ti see what can be done. Brain not doing any better either, but I am hanging in there. My ear sweet loving wife keeps my attitude positive, and one of our girls is here every weekend to give Joy a spell. She is getting jelpimg more as both my son or my Daughter Catherine, cover for her on Red Hat days..

Speaking of which she just called me for dinner !!
Miss being her ever day, but nerves just wont let me concentrate to type.....

We love all of you and really wish we wish we could be here more often.Coot

OC, I know you may not actually read this...but I am so glad you were able to stop in for a little visit. We all know how much you loved you beautiful lilies and that you miss having them. But know that you have inspired us.

((((HUGS))))
