Thanks to you all

Thanks to each one of you who left comments of condolences to Joyce, her and Sherrye's family and myself in the previous entry on the death of her daughter Sherrye. We both appreciated every one of them. You are all great folks.

I been having tremendous back problems this last two weeks and spending a lot of time laying down with my ice packs so this will be a short entry with a few spring pictures I made a few days ago.

I love them all spread out everywhere when they are blooming but if I feel better when they are finished this season I will get Ken to cut them way back.

I hope everyone will have a blessed day and a great weekend. I am sure most of mine will be spent with an ice pack. 
Helen

  6. I was thinking about you last night, wondering, "I hope Helen is doing OK. She hasn't written in awhile."

    Sorry to hear your back has been giving you trouble. I hope the ice helps bring you some relief. I've also been wondering how Mira is doing. I hope she is still feeling ok.

  12. As usual, you somehow manage to have and take the most beautiful flowers and photos. Love to see them. Feel so sad about Joyce's daughter. And Will is probably so sad, too.

  16. Helen, Your flowers are so very beautiful. I have been thinking of you wondering if your area had been getting the storms that have been flooding some of the states, like Ternesse. My American geography needs refreshing. Also how, is Daisy Mae? I hope she has no more strange episodes like she had had previously. I am dismayed to learn that you are having back problems again. I hope you get relief from it soon. Try to have a great day. Ann

  18. Thanks for your visit, hope your back gets to feeling better soon. The flowers are all beautiful. I can't imagine having some bushes that large all blooming at the same time.

  19. I hurt when you hurt.

    My one daughter was operated on for a problem with her back. It was really bad and she would fall down, etc.

  20. I envy your colourful blooms, Helen. Hope your back gets better soon.

  22. (((Helen))) I've missed your beautiful gorgeous pictures and reading what you and Ken have been up to. Sorry your back is bothering you much. Get well soon!! Love ya!

  23. All of our kids went though the screaming fits, until they puked or fell asleep. Never knew what they saw. I thought maybe when I posted the story that someone would have found a solution. I think they can see angels so if demons are here then I suspect that might be what brings them to scream like they do. I am just thankful that all of our kids are either in or past their 50s or soon gonna get there. We had five.

    LOL

    Thanks for the visit. I was here before so won't comment again.

  25. Helen,
    You've outdone yourself again with your photographic talents as well as your green thumbs, You are very gifted. Thanks for sharing. I miss my Mom, too, but I honor her by living the best life I can, she is the one who equipped me to accomplish whatever I have!
    From my first breath, until my Mom's last breath, she was there strong for me. Now, I look in the sky and cry a little but don't waste time grieving as she lived a long and happy life and now has no pain. (My Mom died in 1999.) xx Merry
