The Husband and I did yardwork all day Saturday. I mowed our yard and Nanny's yard. While I was mowing, the tree cutter came to take down the tree had that split during the storm a few weeks ago. The tree-cutting left a pile of wood shreds and sawdust. The workers would have taken it away, but I wanted it for mulch for the garden. The Husband and I raked it up and put it around the tomatoes. Along with the mulch, we transported a few dozen big black ants to the garden. I hope they like to eat fire ants.
With the tree gone, there is now a spot in our back yard that will get sun for most of the day. I'm seeing zinnias and other sun-loving flowers there.
For Mothers Day, The Husband gave me a bird feeder that has a camera in it to take pictures of the birds that come to eat. We plan to mount it on the old basketball goal post that somehow managed to survive when the tree fell on/around it. I wonder how long it will take the squirrels to figure out how to get to it.
Saturday night, I finished the hand quilting on Granddaughter #3's quilt. This week, I intend to bind it, but I haven't even made the binding yet. I've decided it to bind it in white, and maybe do some decorative stitching on it. We'll see.
Last night, I did some hand sewing on the wedding quilt, but I am not going to work on it anymore until #3's quilt is completely finished.
