The calves are fat & sassy. They run, chase & play. The moms ... no running, maybe a trot if someone else is at the barn & they think there’s food.

My double washtub stand & tubs are painted. I am currently setting pavers for it to stand on, then will fill the tubs & plant Calibrachoa. One of my $2 plants is blooming - sort of a peach color like the first one I bought. The other one doesn’t have blooms yet, but will likely be the same color. I cut back on the number of pavers I’m using - just don’t have the patience today for trying to get them all level.

Lavenders need planting, too. Those are the two thing (other than mowing) I need to do outside before company Thursday. Both are very visible from the house. Neither of the people coming (twin cousins) are outdoorsy & the temperature will be 91. Both have health issues & I doubt they could even sit on the porch. I’m trying to calm down about the outside projects - as long as the AC is working & the food is good, I should be ok.

Washtubs are in place & planted & I love the shiny new look (seriously rusted before). Both lavenders are planted, too. I am SO tired of digging holes ... the lavenders were my idea so I can't whine but so much, but no more digging for a long while.
