Just saying Hi. In other words, I don't have a theme or title for this post.

I stuck this fall plaid ribbon peony pins/bows inside this wreath

  that I got on clearance sale several years ago at JoAnn's.   The solid orange

wire edged ribbon, looked out of sorts when I had it just hanging down from the wreath.

So I tucked it up beneath the bow, and called it good enough.

This lantana which I thought was pretty much dead this spring,

is finally coming along.  I planted it just last fall so it's rather new to me.

I think the deer may like it. 

  I have no idea  what this plant is. 

 It dies back each winter, and comes up in the spring.

It grows about 5-8 feet tall. 

 This one grows in  afternoon shade  and so it's not as tall and lush

as others I've seen.  It definitely needs water as I haven't seen it growing

in the woods around here.

  

I love the purple stems and berry colors.

Today's To Do list  for tomorrows Cancer Society Tea.

Wash and wrap the new tea pot, jam~butter~and lemon dishes.

Set the trial run table one more time to make sure I have everything. (obsessive)

 Replace the ribbon on the gift basket/centerpiece.

Pack it all into the car. ( I probably should wash the car, it's dusty.) 

Hope I have it all together.

Relax and stop worrying/obsessing.

Deep breaths.... sigh.

Oh, and go to the bank for cash to purchase raffle tickets.

Recharge camera battery.

I could go on.

Take care.
