I like Dianthus and Johnny Jumpup Violas, but they may not go well with your coneflowers.

LOL. Thanks for sharing the pics. We should have gone to Springfield to mow, but we didn’t. They are calling for rain this weekend, so it’s going on 3 or 4 weeks.

Not me. I wish for superman powers, that would allow me to get 26 hrs of work done in 10 minutes, so that I could just do whatever I wanted the rest of the time.

A friend of mine who moved away many years ago, used to tell me she wished for a wife to do all the crap her husband delegated to her. LOL

Yep. My “comfortable old shoes” are really pinching my toes
tonight! Fang has insisted on putting some sets of
polyester sheets & pillowcases on our bed. They just
smother me & I’ve had nary a wink of sleep tonight (well,
maybe a wink, but not much more). I have to get up and
function during the day; & when I lose a night’s sleep, my
goose is cooked. (I had several white Egyptian cotton
sheets & cases from Penney’s; but those are probably worn
out.) I changed the sheets for MANY years; but I’m 70 yrs.
old & getting weaker by the day! He’s retired now and is
having to help me more around the house.

Fang shoots squirrels here like a house afire! They eat
his pears. I think he also thinks it helps his aim.

Yes. You have to laugh from time to time if for no reason
but to keep from crying. :o)

On the up side, our soil is great. But the bugs are literally killing the plants.
