planting the garden

We were up early and did some stretching again. This is really hard on my left leg and knee. We ate breakfast and then did slow aerobics. I can’t do these as well either but better than the stretching. Regardless I feel the need to do them. I showered during the floor portion of the exercise, and then we drove to church to set up the altar for tomorrow’s worship. We then drove to Tuscola High School to buy some plants at their greenhouse sale. We got 3 petunias, 2 begonias and a Mandevilla. We then went to Lowes for some potting soil. We drove in to town to look for a place that gives away mulch. We finally got proper directions but didn’t go because we didn’t have containers. We came home and began preparing places to plant the items. Several will go into hanging baskets while others will be planted between shrubs and in our front yard flower garden. We planted some seeds in the short window boxes Frieda gave us. I will try to take and publish pictures of them tomorrow. We had lunch and then soaked some material that came in the box with our hanging tomato plant. We followed the directions but had a great deal of soil (also included) left over. I went to the web site and asked why. I hope to get an answer in a few days. We were both tired and took about an hour nap before supper. While sleeping, I heard a very hard rain come down along with some thunder. We ate supper and then Evelyn made some brownies before watching another movie from the library. It was “Captain Jack”. It was very good but broke up in the middle of the disk as did the one night before last. We don’t know whether it is the disk or our DVD player. Off to worship tomorrow.
