moms flowers

It's cold here. It's windy, rainy, and cold.
I was looking out my window last night
and noticed I had new flowers that had bloomed.
Last year mom spent almost 3 weeks in the hosp. after her car wreck.
Then another several weeks in the house getting physical therapy, too weak
to go out.
She was so excited when she was finally able to go out for awhile.
Our first trip out was to Walgreen's.
I took her there because it's small........wouldn't require her
to walk long distances. It was a trial run......to see how she would do......before we could move on to bigger, better shopping.Mom loved to shop.
She did good.......walked that store pushing a shopping cart in front of her..........she was all over that place...........one of the things she bought was a box of wild flower seeds.
She gave them to me to plant in my back yard.
Mom didn't garden.........wasn't interested in it.............I honestly didn't know she knew
I dabbled in it.....................maybe she did. I honestly don't know................but it was sweet that she
got the wild flower seeds for me.....................I didn't have the time to plants those seeds that summer..........mom was sick and much of my time was spent with her or at work.............................I planted them this summer..........................only one flower bloomed until last night..................................so I looked out the window and saw these flowers flowing in the wind..........waving at me...


...............makes me happy and sad all at once!
 
So  I have to finish cleaning my dining room today. It's become a catch all as I get the house together for the holidays.

I have no place to go with this stuff! My house
is a tiny old house.............the closets are little............and some things just can't go to the basement!

You just need a good storage shed to keep the extra clutter in, most of our stuff doesn't care how hot or cold it is.
