Better late than Never

With all that we have had going on so far this summer,our flower beds have been quite neglected. This is looking pretty bad so Friday Mike and I went to the nursery to buy some flowers. The good news is that all flowers were buy one get one free and there was still a good selection of the flowers that we usually plant so we were able to get a good deal while still getting what we wanted. Since Mike's back will not allow him to plant this year Michael has been assigned the job. Michael doesn't mind but is at his Grandparents( as he is every week)Friday and Saturday to do their yard maintenance. Because of this Sunday looks like the day to plant. He has offered to skip his Great Grandmother's birthday party to complete the job before Monday which starts Mike's vacation.What vacation will hold is uncertain because Cindy has asked off for Monday , Tuesday, and Wednesday at work but the schedule has not yet gone up ( or she hasn't worked since it did) so we are not sure if she will be off for us to do anything.Even if she is it will take a small miracle to pull off a doggy resort opening , hotel reservations, and all of that good stuff for this coming Monday of The fourth of July week but we will see. We have our eyes on a visit to Cincinnati's Kings Island for which admission is included on our Cedar point season passes.We went there last year and everyone had a great time so we would like to return but we will see what happens.
