Today


I am still having problems trying to edit my photos but I will get around to it, it is a matter of remembering what to do and having time to do it.
It has rained all day today, just quietly and so far a bit more than 13mm which is wonderful for filling the rain water tanks and not being so heavy it washes the ground.
the first photo I took of the wet from inside the sitting room and was amused to see a little black pug face peering in at me when I took it.
I had wandered around the garden before the rain started just taking small photos of things in pots by the back door.
So some bedding begonias in a pot, a mix of geranium, and some herbs and a yellow nasturtium which is still flowering, shows how on the whole we have had a mild summer as usually they have died down by now. My pots are a bit messy but I havent been able to get a clear run at sorting them but now my knee is feeling so much better I hope to clean them up a bit soon.
Finally the rose Lamarque flowering her head off over the shed, such a lovely rose with a wonderful lemony scent.
I have carried on a bit about the Queensland floods on my other blog (on the side bar) so I wont say any more here except I dont know how people cope in those situations.

Wonderful flowers. It did my heart good to see them....we have snow on the ground here.
Is the black Pug yours...I adore Pugs had two fawn Pugs. I always called the canine clowns :)
Do you use Picasa? Picasa is a wonderful way to edit and sort photos.

Cute little Pug!!! I am so excited, Penny...I just rooted a few cuttings of white Begonia in water in my kitchen window! I stole the cuttings from the mall outdoor landscaping! I am so bad! I suppose this will become my new way of getting new plants! LOLOL.
