A bed in the greenhouse??

First, thank you all for the nice comments on my last post. I feel bad for not replying to each one, but especially to those of you without blogs. Those with blogs, it's easy to visit and say thank you. Anyhow, I sure appreciate you all!

In my last post I told you that Eli is going on 11 years old. I was wrong. He will be 12 in January! We were in the vet's office with him yesterday and the chart on the door says that Mr. Eli, in human years, would be 92. 

Something about this picture I really like. The early morning sunrise cast such pretty colors on the old dirt road. Eli had stopped to rest, and I was asking him if he was ok. Sort of looks like an old painting, doesn't it?

The teeny tiny garden and all the potted plants are keeping me pretty busy. Poppy says I need to put myself a bed up in the greenhouse. Humm, now that's a thought...

But look, are these pictures neat...

and this one...

This is an ice plant. My friend Karen brought me a pot full last summer and I started more pots.  Oh, and while we're up at the garden, remember the old washing machine tub I use for potting soil...

and the trash can lid Poppy found lying beside the road?? Well, the lid doesn't fit tight and when it rains the soil gets wet. 

Walmart had a display of plastic tablecloths for $4.38. I bought one of the large size ones, folded it in half and cut out a circle. Sewed some binding along the edge and...

Dry soil! Also found these clips at Walmart...

Oops! Wrong picture! These clips...

Making and clipping little pleats along the bottom keeps the cover on nice and tight.

and here's a little idea...

I cut several pieces of old green clothesline wire and bent them into "S" hooks. Makes hanging things easy, like my little garden basket. 

So, that's about it for this time. I will leave you with a picture of little miss Violet. She turned one year old on May 25th! 

She is such a sweet baby and smiles all the time!!

Thank you, dear friends!

Love, Henny
