I awoke early like I usually do and heard the heavy rain on the skylight. The windchimes were being blown madly by the wind and I knew that we wouldn't be walking today. As it turned out the wind died down a bit and the rain turned into an intermittent shower so we went after all just later than we usually go.
Yesterday was cloudy but hardly any rain fell. GS M did some powerwashing ( his first time).
After he was done the path I put out some of my teacups. I may not put all of them out this year, we'll see how it goes.
We finished the puzzle we were working on and put the board away for a few months. Once there's more to do outside we don't do puzzles. We had done this one before but we don't mind re-doing one that we liked ( with slightly bigger pieces which make it easier to pick them up.)
I was just thinking how I want to finish up the photo album project so I will have my puzzle table back. When it is 100 plus degrees outside, I know I will want to stay inside. (:
ReplyDeleteI like the teacups!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice puzzle. We save puzzles for the winter too. :)
Love the illustration!
Beautiful photos! We are getting a lot of rain here in Montreal today, perfect for getting things done indoors, having a nice hot cup of tea and doing a jigsaw puzzle!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very nice puzzle.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Nice that you had help with the pressure washing. It can be a job!
ReplyDeletethis blog post really shows the turning of seasons, Spring, it is here again! I love your teacups!
ReplyDeleteYour tea cups are adorable 🫖☕🫖
ReplyDeleteYour tea cups are adorable ☕🫖☕ today was one of those rainy days . . . I worked outside until I couldn't, then came in and fell asleep in my chair watching a sappy movie.
ReplyDeleteI like that puzzle that you put together and I LOVE seeing your teacups outside again. Such a cute and unique idea. Take good care. diane in northern wis
ReplyDeleteIt seems that spring has sprung. in your neck of the woods. It feels like summer here right now but supposed to be much cooler by the end of the week. Thankful for a grandson to help you with the power washing. That's a big job and your teacups look great back outside in their places too.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs,
Betsy
I like went you put your teacups out it’s a good sign of spring! The puzzle is very nice a vintage English one. We are also putting the puzzle away until next Autumn.
ReplyDeleteThe teacups make such a pretty display. They really do mark the arrival of spring.
ReplyDeleteLove the puzzles...and adore the teacups! Glad you got them up again!

The teacups are lovely, so creative! Larry would break those in a minute though. But what a pretty way to border your walk.
ReplyDeleteI love your teacups along the walkway, what a great idea. I might have to do one and put it in my flowerbed. We've been having overcast days lately, the sun will shine but only briefly.
ReplyDeleteLovely post!
ReplyDeleteWhat fine helpers you always have to make your garden-dreams reality! Your teacups has nobody else, it's a wonder of creativity and a kind of individual tradition!
ReplyDeleteThe tea celebrating sweet rabbit is wise!
Looks like a fun puzzle! We put ours away too.
ReplyDeleteI've never done a jigsaw puzzle before... can you imagine?
ReplyDeleteYour teacups in the garden are wonderful. I really like them.
Love, Viola
I just love your teacups lining the walkway! So sweet of your grandson to pressure wash it for you too! It has been rainy/snowy here as well. Blessings to you :)
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your teacups in your garden! Thankful you have family around who look after you and your DH. We are beginning to really need the rain here. We have thunderstorms forecast, but we usually end up with just showers.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is looking so nice. I love the teacups lining the path.
ReplyDeleteI love your teacups. That's a nice puzzle.
ReplyDeleteSounds like one of those “maybe not… okay, we’re going anyway” kind of mornings 😄 Glad the weather gave you just enough of a break.
ReplyDeleteAnd powerwashing for the first time... always satisfying to see the difference right away! I hope my hubby will do it in April too.
Your teacups look lovely out there, such a nice touch. HOw did you put them on the sticks?
Hope you have a good weekend!
Those teacups are lovely, how are they secured? It is nice that you and your husband do something together, it is important and when you don't have it, you drift away from each other.
