New Beginnings!

My Dear Blogging Friends

One of my top viewed post was about flowers, double  Impatiens, my favorite annual!  I love flowers!  I decided on forcing these paper whites.   I have never forced paper whites before but there are a lot of things I have never done before.  One, starting a new job and needing and wanting it so much at 52 with young people who have their whole life before them and me, well, my life is really half over.  I'm really praying and hoping it will be a new beginning for me.  I will watch these paper whites grow and pray I will grow to.

  6. Oh how I'd love to start some bulbs! Unfortunately the 3 little kittens LOVE to dig in dirt.

  7. THAT IS A GOOD WAY TO START YOUR PLANTS. THEN WHEN SPRING COMES, BLOOMS WILL COME SONNER.

  11. Good luck to you and your paper whites in your new beginning! I have some paper whites in my garden, they bloomed on Christmas Day. I blogged about it in my post "Christmas Flowers". I did not know what they were called until now. Please come share your blog posts over at the Home Matters Linky Party! We'd love to have you for a visit. The Door is OPEN. http://lifewithlorelai.com/2015/02/05/home-matters-linky-party-23/ :)
