In The Year 2525

4/5/2012

 
So I was checking out my progress on the  Easy Access Recipe Page over on the sidebar there,

and it occurred to me that I am taking me a looooong time to complete that page.



I got smart though
no comments from the peanut gallery, thank you

and figured I'd be realistic and set a completion date for that page
sometime in the year 2525.


You know that song? 
...In the year 2525, if man is still alive, if woman can survive...blah blah oh my word, when is this song ever gonna end?
Picture

And because I am so skilled and clearly adept at staying on subject (ahem),

I went ahead and Googled that song.

It's from 1969 by a rock duo called
Zager and Evans.

That song was their only hit.



Shocking.

Which brings me back to my predilection for procrastination and my inability to get crap done, right, right?
Who's with me on this? Who knows what I'm talkin' bout?
Picture



Who has a window that needs repaired?

For like 10 years?

Who?
You?


Picture



Although I don't think the broken window detracts from the vintagey barn setting I have going on.

Much.



Picture


I will say I am pretty organized on the one side of the barn though. 

No windows need fixing here!

Just vintage sleds waiting for Christmastime again! HOHOHO!!!

Picture


Oh, I had to show you these.
Can you see the hanging barb wire shaped into boots?

They're cool, I love them!


Picture

But I don't like the fact that the blue horse trough by the barn has ugly green flowers planted in them.


Okay,

FINE!!!
So those aren't flowers. Those are weeds.

I wonder if I can call those weeds "ground cover" and get away with it?

Picture



And I am procrastinating repainting this wagon wheel.



Doesn't look too bad though, does it?

Picture
YES IT DOES!!!! And it needs done because that wagon wheel keeps people's cars from running over my well pump.



Picture

This just seems like an overwhelming project...cleaning out the sandbox and hauling in clean sand and making a cover for it.

*sigh*

I can just about guarantee though, that  I will have it done by 2525.


Picture
What horse trough is complete without flowers?

Why haven't I planted any flowers yet?

Why am I lazy?

Why am I not rich where I can hire people to do this kind of work for me? 

Maybe I can call those weeds in there "ground cover" too.


Picture




Hey, I loooove my chunky textured orange and lime green pots though.

Picture

I was very organized in February and bought mostly matching pots for this display (YOU try finding nine identical yellow pots...impossible!)
And haven't done anything with it since.

They look like nine little yellow, forlorn lollipop kids with no lollipops.


Picture


The summer kitchen window box has that gorgeous ground cover in it too.

Loverly,
isn't it?

Hey!
The summer kitchen below has these cool vines growing up them again after freezing off two years ago...YAY!

And the trumpet vine to the right there just continues to grow!

Hello.

I am a crock in need of flowers.



Or sauerkraut.

Picture





Those small cobalt blue planters outside the pump house are looking....tiny.

Picture
Maybe I should set the tiny planters on this bench this year.

Maybe I should paint this bench this year?

Why are there birdhouses attached to my bench?




Why does this bike have a coffee pot in it?
I have no reasonable explanation.
Picture
Picture

Hey, know what though?
I can explain why a large vintage gate is laying against my garage.

Cuz I LOVES IT!!!!
And no,
you can't have it and I'm not selling it :) I know you want it.






And look how this old crock is just tucked in amongst the greenery.
Picture
Picture
This is my secret garden where I go to think, dream, write sonnets, and solve world peace.












Okay, somebody just lied about something being her secret garden.


You knew that was a lie didn't you?



You knew it was a lie because there's nowhere to put cheesecake silly!






Okay, that's all I got for now....Have a nice, warm, sunny, fun, rest of the weekend!

See ya soon!!!!
