Not lost--just been elsewhere

I barely started this blog and then became caught up in a lot of life and just did not get back.
It seems I have a knack of becoming too busy because brain informs me I still have energy of a 20 year old..but that's not quite true.
I am slower.
But not out of the picture. When I can, will fill you in on the past eight months but just now..a note about today.
Goose Creek and all of Low Country have weather of beautiful sun and topped out at 80 degrees today. Gentle breeze. There are some homes and grassland plus forest involved in large fire about 100 - 110 miles north east of here in Myrtle Beach area..not Myrtle Beach itself..all that just fine..but new neighborhoods West of there ..like a suburb..People have had to evacuate and I think so far 100 homes have been burned. Sad. But not even any smoke or smell of smoke locally so I suppose the sea breezes are moving such in another direction.
The Azeleas in yard have just about stopped blooming..so have the Camillas (Camellias start as early as November)..Spring flowers such as Forsythia, Breath O' Spring, the early white Iris, redbud, (we had a frost that killed nearly all the Dogwood blooms) Yellow Jasmine, etc ..have ended their season . Now roses are bloomings, so are the small carnations, Amryllis (I have several planted in yard) and a few other flowers.
All these have been on their own for the past four or five years as I was slowly losing strength of hands or too much pain for gardening and just mostly watered and cut grass with light weight self propelled mower..I have lost some flowers from neglect. But, things are somewhat better now. There is improvement.
Our children in Chicagoland and Spokane doing well..our grandchildren too and the great grands (five) also. So no complaints ..life if beautiful.
But I have other responsibilities just now so must sign off. I hope I am on here again within a day or so. Love to all..geny/GG/MOM
